Just as more people travel again, state ferry service on five runs is about to take a hit.
The large ferry Wenatchee could be out of service for months after a newly rebuilt engine failed and started a fire during a sea trial.
With few backup options, Washington State Ferries plans to shuffle boats starting May 13, which means smaller-capacity boats on several runs.
“When you lose one of your superstars, this is one of the state’s largest ferries, there’s going to be a trickle-down effect,” said WSF spokesman Ian Sterling.
