Washington State Ferries, the state's own ferry system, runs the passenger and car ferries from Seattle's Colman Dock across Puget Sound to Bainbridge Island and Bremerton. The Edmonds to Kingston crossing leaves from a different terminal. Each card gives the figures as the operator's own schedule page states them and says when we last checked.
