About the Southworth – Fauntleroy crossing
4.4 nautical miles, and the timetable allows 40 minutes. Under seven knots — because this is not a crossing but one leg of the Fauntleroy–Vashon–Southworth triangle, and the boat calls at Vashon on the way.
Forty-four departures, from 00:35 to 23:20
Both of those run every day, as do the 10:20 and the 11:00. Everything else is split between a twenty-two-strong weekday group and a seventeen-strong one that carries Saturday, Sunday and Monday together — Washington State Ferries runs its weekend service on holiday Mondays, and the calendar shows it.
A single Friday sailing
The 21:30 appears on Fridays and no other day. On a route with a boat roughly every forty minutes that one exception is easy to miss and easy to depend on.
8 August to 19 September 2026
A six-week edition. WSF revises several times a year; the Fauntleroy to Vashon leg of the same triangle carries 62 sailings on the same dates.
