The M/V Issaquah is a Issaquah 130 Class ferry operated by Washington State Ferries.
As of early 2009, the ferry is serving the Fauntleroy(Seattle)-Vashon [3] and Fauntleroy-Southworth routes. In early 2007 it served on the Bremerton Run due to the MV Hyak replacing the MV Tacoma on the Seattle-Bainbridge Island run, and in the summer of 2007 she sailled on the Mukilteo-Clinton run due to the MV Cathlamet and MV Kittitas being out of sevice at the same time. On June 3, 2012 it returned to service on the F/V/SW route after being out for over a month. [4].
