This issue has come up before in the context of packrafting trail relations.
Closer to home here, we do have some bike trails that include ferry boat
/waterbus) bits. They are included in the relations.
On of the latter is relation 1610889
<https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1610889>
The coastal part of the route goes via the the Islands Lido di Venezia and
Pellestrina.
