New passenger ferry to connect Everett, Langley
EVERETT — The Port of Everett and Port of South Whidbey are planning to launch a new passenger ferry service traveling between Everett and Langley beginning in June, the Port of Everett announced Monday.
The ferry service will operate the pilot program on most Thursdays and Saturdays from June 4 to Aug. 29, according to the port. Two ferry trips will leave both Everett and Langley per day. It will utilize the 45-seat Hat Island Ferry, which is used to bring people between Everett and Hat Island, the small private island situated between Whidbey Island and Everett.
The focus of the new ferry service is on tourism, the Port of Everett wrote in its release, but the new service “will also be used to test demand for potential of permanent tourism and commuter service options between Everett and Whidbey Island in the future,” it wrote.
If the route is popular, it could be offered again in the future, the Port of Everett wrote. The port also operates a small ferry between Everett and Jetty Island during the summer months.
