Yes, departures may change due to vessel inspections or operational requirements.

I tried riding it because it is a precious Naruto. It takes about 30 minutes from the port to Naruto Ohashi Bridge. It is very kind to have an announcement explaining the landscape to that extent. Around Naruto Ohashi Bridge, I was able to see the whirlpool up close while circling so that I could see it on either side. I thought the vortex might have a longer lifespan, but it was surprisingly one-off.
It is said to be a rare sight in the world, and you should try it at least once when you stop by Awajishima or Naruto.

Pleasant cruise to see whirlpools so near
We did not expect the car park to be full but it was and we were directed to free parking about 15 min walk away . We had lunch next to the cruise centre in a small seafood restaurant that sold very good unagi Don and salmon ikura Don for 1500 yen each .
There was a long queue to board the ship at 130 pm . We bought our tickets on the same day an hour earlier for 2500 yen per pax . Many old folks on wheelchairs also boarded the ship . The whole cruise took an hour . There was no severe rocking . The whirlpools were not gigantic ones but rather multiple small ones that formed then disappear .
Altogether quite a pleasant experience to see whirlpools so near .
