seattle–bainbridge ferry
mv tacoma









































the mv "tacoma" is a jumbo mark ii class ferry operated by washington state ferries. launched in 1997, it was the first in its class in the washington state ferries fleet. since delivery, the "tacoma" has almost exclusively been assigned to the seattle-bainbridge island route.









































the "tacoma" and its sister ship, the mv "wenatchee", suffered from excessive vibration during their early period of operation, until it was repaired during routine maintenance in 1999. the issue was addressed in the later jumbo mark ii ferry, the mv "puyallup", before it launched.
