Description
Interisland ferry service will resume Tuesday afternoon in the San Juan Islands after a day-long suspension paused travel on Aug. 21, according to Washington State Ferries (WSF).
The Chelan ferry, which services the San Juan Islands, was damaged and out of service after running aground on Sunday night near Friday Harbor. The boat remained there as divers assessed the damage, finding hull damage after striking the shoreline.
As of Tuesday, the boat was towed to Anacortes and a replacement boat, the Salish, will be used in its place. WSF plans to resume ferry service with the 2:15 p.m. trip leaving Friday Harbor Tuesday, Aug. 22.
