Since 1951 the only ferries employed on the route have belonged to the Washington state ferry system, currently the largest ferry system in the United States. Point Defiance-Tahlequah is the shortest route in the system. DescriptionThis ferry route is 1.7 miles long, with terminals at Point Defiance Park in Tacoma and, on Vashon Island, at Tahlequah.[1] VesselsUntil 1967, the wooden ferry Skansonia (capacity: 308 passengers, 32 autos) was regularly assigned to the route. In 1967, Skansonia, built in 1929, was replaced with Hiyu (capacity: 200 passengers, 40 autos), which had been built specifically for the route.[1] However, traffic soon outpaced the Hiyu, which was replaced by the Olympic and later the 48-car ferry M/V Rhododendron. Since 2012, Chetzemoka has served the route. See also
