MV Sally Fox is a passenger-only ferry built for the King County Water Taxi. The Sally Fox is 104 feet (32 m) long and has a capacity of 278 passengers seated in two indoor decks and outdoor balconies. The aluminum catamaran was built in 2014 by All American Marine in Bellingham, Washington for US$6.25 million (US$8.03 million in 2023 dollars^[4]), and is used primarily on the Vashon Island–Seattle route. The boat began operating on the Vashon route in April 2015, replacing two leased boats.^[5] The vessel was named for Sally Fox, a Vashon Island activist who fought for passenger ferry service to the island.^[6] It is the sister ship of the MV Doc Maynard, which entered service in 2016.^[7]
