Necessary repairs on the Kitsap Ferry have been made and it will return to regular service with the 9:45 a.m. sailing from Bremerton to Seattle.

Earlier today, Washington State Ferries officials announced that the Kitsap Ferry was out of service until further notice due to necessary repairs.

The 7:20 a.m. sailing from Bremerton and the 8:30 a.m. sailing from Seattle were cancelled.  Maintenance crews went onboard the vessel and were assessing the problem.

Updates on the status of the Kitsap will occur as they become available.
