Water Taxi temporary service reduction beginning Monday Nov. 28
Service on the King County Water Taxi Vashon Island route will be temporarily reduced beginning Monday, Nov. 28, due to mechanical damage to our boats’ propellers caused by submerged debris in the water. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. The repairs may take several days.
As soon as a shipyard has the availability to perform repairs, we will return to regular service. We will share schedule updates as the boats are repaired.
Vashon Island service will be reduced by two runs in the morning and evening.
The following trips from Downtown Seattle to Vashon Island are canceled: 5:30 a.m. and 7:40 a.m. in the mornings and 4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. in the evenings.
The following trips from Vashon Island to Downtown Seattle are canceled: 6:10 a.m. and 8:15 a.m. in the mornings and 4:58 p.m. and 6:58 p.m. in the evenings.
