Hey Jürgen, I think you are hitting a change in behavior that occurred between the 4.9 and 5.0 versions. It is not possible to start on ferries anymore. That means if a route over a ferry is not the fastest route, it will not get taken. Combine that with the fact that most ferries don't have a `duration` tag (hence defaulting to a speed of 5 km/h), you will only see them used if there is absolutely no way.
However in the case above, I think you are hitting a different problem: The island is not reachable because the paths on the ferry are not accessible by cars: http://map.project-osrm.org/?z=18¢er=38.013485%2C12.512650&loc=38.013535%2C12.513288&loc=38.012737%2C12.511910&hl=en&alt=0 http://map.project-osrm.org/?z=18¢er=37.933299%2C12.325405&loc=37.933282%2C12.325196&loc=37.933227%2C12.325501&hl=en&alt=0 I'm not sure if these ferries are generally accessible by car, but the tagging would need to be fixed for that.
