I have booked a ticket for the 09:00 ferry, when do I have to be at the port in Prapratno?

First of all, you can not book a ticket for a specific departure, what you have booked/bought is a day ticket, valid for any of the day’s departures. What time you have to be at the ferry port to catch a specific departure depends on whether it is a busy travel day or not, if not busy, 30-40 minutes before should be fine, if it is a busy or really busy travel day e.g. a Saturday in the main season, you might need to be at the port 2 hours or more before.
