I'm arriving at OGG at 2:15pm and unfortunately my friend can't pick me up. I did a search for past discussions about taking the Maui Bus to Kapalua, but they are a few years old.

I looked at the bus timetable on Google Transit. It is saying it will take me well over 7 hours to reach Kapalua, but I think it is being conservative. According to the Maui Bus timetable, the bus arrives at a transfer point on the hour. The next bus I have to take leaves on the hour from the same stop. Google Transit assumes I will miss the bus leaving on the hour, and therefore I will have to wait until the next one an hour later.

I'm thinking that surely they coordinate transfers, i.e. Bus 2 won't leave until Bus 1 arrives, since it is the terminal point for both routes and surely there are other people who ride route-to-route all the way from Kahului. Can anyone confirm this?

Also, I read something about a baggage restriction on Maui Bus. Is this enforced? I will only be carrying a 60-litre backpack. Not much bigger than a couple of large shopping bags.
