Given Statement: Take a ferry or a boat instead of a bus to reach the Kravi Islands faster.

Assumptions:

I. The islands being in remote location are not easily accessible. → Not Implicit

The statement only suggests a faster alternative, not necessarily that the islands are in a remote or hard-to-reach place. Thus, the comparison is about speed, not accessibility.

II. Ferries and boats are available to travel to Kravi Islands. → Implicit

For the advice to be practical or valid, ferries and boats must be available. Otherwise, the statement wouldn't make sense. 

Thus, Only assumption II is implicit.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.
