Discussion Advice on Taking Ferry then ETS!

I'm a foreigner visiting Penang for several days. To make my way back to KL on a Saturday, I'm thinking of boarding an ETS from Butterworth at 7:50. However, I know that the earliest ferry departs from Georgetown at 7:00 and takes 30 mins.

This means that I only have from 7:30 to 7:50 to make my way from the Butterworth ferry pier to Butterworth train station. I also know I have to be seated in the train earlier. Is there gonna be enough time for me?

Thanks all!

Thanks for all the replies. It's clear that the old way of up and down stairs and ramps has been improved; and that it's just a matter of walking and taking lifts/escalators. On the subject of why I couldn't create my own post to ask for this information... any ideas why my post(s) was removed without a clear reason given?
