#ICYMI, @FTA_DOT recently awarded us w/$4.8M to revamp passenger areas of our 6 Issaquah-class vessels. #Cathlamet, #Chelan, #Issaquah, #Kitsap, #Kittitas & #Sealth built 1979-1982. Funding will extend useful life of boats for another 5-10 years while new ferries are built.
#Suquamish will enter service as #1 boat on our #Fauntleroy/#Vashon/#Southworth route beginning with the 210p Fauntleroy departure, joining #2 #Cathlamet.
#Seattle/#Bainbridge run on one-boat service with #2 #Tacoma only. Troubleshooting continues on #Kitsap mechanical issues.
