MV Chelan (May 14th, 2024)

Washington State Ferries is the largest ferry system in the United States, operating twenty-one vessels in the Puget Sound and San Juan Islands. All together, the vessels, ranging in size from 64-car ferries to 202-car ferries, carry 18.2 million riders per year. The MV Chelan, the vessel featured in this video, is an Issaquah class ferry capable of holding 124 cars and 1200 passengers. She is 328'' 0" in length, 78' 8" wide, and has a 16' 9" draft. The Chelan has two GE 7 FDM-12 Diesel engines that together generate 5000 horsepower. She can travel at 16 Knots. The name Chelan comes from the Chelan language Tsill-ane, meaning "deep water." The tribe lived along Lake Chelan, which is very deep. A city, county and river also bear the name. The Chelan was designed and built in 1981 by Marine Power and Equipment in Seattle, WA. She started her career on the Edmonds/Kingston run alongside fleet mate Yakima, but was removed from the run as traffic outpaced her. The Chelan became a spare vessel, filling in for her five sisters when they were out of service and often worked in the San Juan Islands during the summer. Since receiving SOLAS certification in 2006, the Chelan is most often found on the Sidney BC run during the peak season, and serving the San Juan Islands domestically during the off-peak season. Since the pandemic, the Chelan has transitioned to serving the San Juan Islands domestically, full time. The Chelan is 43 years old, the tenth oldest vessel in the fleet. In this video, the Chelan is seen on the 5:30 a.m. sailing from Anacortes to Orcas Island and the 6:45 a.m. sailing from Orcas Island to Shaw Island, Lopez Island, and Anacortes. Appearances by the MV Tillikum, MV Yakima, MV Puyallup, and MV Samish are included. Discord:   / discord
