All operating ferries sounded their whistle at 11:11 a.m. today in honor of Veterans Day. We’re also flying a military branch or Merchant Marine flag and the POW/MIA flag on our vessels today. We're proud to employ many veterans. They bring invaluable skills from their time in service. One of our employee veterans says, "I am using the confidence I gained to confront new challenges." We’re grateful for the contributions veterans make each day and honored to have them on our team! | Washington St

Ever wondered what our ferries look like under the water line? Well, here you go. The 57-year-old Kaleetan is taking a well-deserved break at Dakota Creek Industries in Anacortes. The vessel is required to occassionally go into dry dock to ensure it’s in safe, working order and comply with U.S. Coast Guard requirements. Being out of the water allows for comprehensive inspections, repairs and maintenance that help prevent breakdowns and extend a boat’s lifespan. Kaleetan is scheduled to return to

Repairs are ongoing and updates will be provided as we get them. Video description: a montage of photos of crews working on the Samish in the engine room.

There are some perks to working on the Salish Sea. One of them is seeing marine wildlife. Chief Mate Graham Dewitt spotted a pod of orcas on Sunday. To share the amazing sight with others, he recorded video while Kitsap was stopped so the killer whales could safely pass by during the Mukilteo/Clinton route sailing. What a treat! | Washington State Ferries

Put simply… line cutting is pretty *ferry horn blast* RUDE. We all have places to be. But don’t be THAT guy and cut a fellow passenger off when getting in line for the ferry. As summer comes in swinging, long wait times for drivers are to be expected - and frustrating. Drivers who cut in line can be fined by @wastatepatrol - not a good look. Reminder: only law enforcement can’t issue fines and enforce laws. Our employees are not law enforcement agents. Please be kind. Video description: a woman
