Seattle-Bremerton ferry route down to 1 boat after breakdown
SEATTLE (AP) — The Seattle-Bremerton ferry route will be down to one-boat service starting Tuesday.
Washington State Ferries said the route will operate using the No. 2 M/V Chimacum after a steering system failure on the No. 1 M/V Salish on Sunday. WSF said only the No. 2 ferry sailings will operate while the M/V Salish is out of service, KING5 reported.
Passengers should plan ahead and give themselves extra travel time as there will likely be travel delays during peak times. The M/V Salish is expected to return to service later this week.
“Thank you for your patience while we work to maintain our fleet,” WSF said in a travel alert bulletin. “Crews will work as quickly and safely as possible to repair the boat and return the route back to full service.”
