A sad end to an interesting old boat that provided me with a lot of “night card” relief work while “looking for a ship.”
Think I read there was 200 people on that little thing. Seems like alot from what I remember while moving it it was pretty small.
I remember seeing those in Port Angeles, about two years ago.
I think the number is closer to 290.

It was certificated by the CG for 250 and operated by WSF as a 230 passenger only boat.
So standard we overloaded the boat and it sank deal… Tragic
Who knows what happened … the stability letter allowed for 253 pax + 5 crew and the COI allowed for 255 pax and crew with a limitation of 148 on the upper deck and 124 on the main deck.
