I think both should be supported. For simple lines, e.g. crossing a river. not using relations should be good enough. For more complex routes, especially on the sea, relations are better suited.

I have seen that most of the ferry lines are drawn as ways, each one representing a public transport line. They have a route=ferry tag, motorcar=* and so on. But if you have several lines and several different types of one line (on Fridays it doesn't stop on this island), you will have to draw a lot of lines on the sea. That's why I thought that relations are probably the wanted way of drawing ferry lines. Also, the new public transport scheme says so.

I just wanted to see if we agree, so that I can go to the OSRM github page and complain why they don't route over my ferry relations :)
