MV Puyallup

MV Puyallup is a Jumbo Mark-II-class ferry operated by Washington State Ferries. This ferry and her two sisters are the largest in the fleet. Puyallup is normally assigned to the Edmonds–Kingston route, although she is often reassigned to the Seattle–Bainbridge Island route whenever either of her sisters assigned to that route are out of service. In mid-2008, Puyallup was sent out of service for repainting and to have a new security system installed. She returned to service in January 2009. In the winter of 2013 she was hauled and her hull was stripped down to steel for a thorough inspection and scheduled maintenance. She was also fitted with new five-bladed propellers as an experiment to reduce vibration and increase efficiency.
