FerryOrNot

Heading across Puget Sound? FerryOrNot answers the question every ferry rider actually has: take the boat, or drive around? It compares both, door to door, using live Washington State Ferries data and real traffic - then tells you which one gets you there sooner, and how much to trust the answer. WHAT IT DOES Compares ferry against driving around, ranked by arrival time, between any two places you give it. Names the boat. The verdict reads "Take the 4:35 ferry" - not a vague nudge toward the terminal. Says when it doesn't know. Every recommendation carries a confidence read, and when the two options are genuinely too close to call, it says so instead of picking. Predicts delays instead of repeating them. Sailings on nine crossings carry a forecast built from months of vessel telemetry, so a boat running late is often flagged before the schedule admits it. Tells you when to leave. A leave-by time for the sailing you chose, worked back through live traffic and a dock cushion measured from real toll-booth data. ONCE YOU'VE PICKED A BOAT Commit to a sailing and the app stays with you: - A journey card that follows you through the app and keeps the countdown honest - Lock Screen updates while you drive, with your ferry pass ready to scan at the toll booth - A warning if your sailing is cancelled, delayed, or stops being catchable - and an all-clear when it recovers - A reminder as you reach the terminal, with the right pass already open THE REST - Live vessel map, with a slider back through the day - Terminal cameras, so you can see the holding lanes yourself - WSF service alerts and bulletins - Drive-up space estimates, and how full this sailing usually is by now - Tides, wind and water temperature at the crossing - Live WSF fares for your direction - Link a Wave2Go pass by camera and check remaining rides ROUTES Ten crossings: Seattle–Bainbridge, Seattle–Bremerton, Edmonds–Kingston, Mukilteo–Clinton, Fauntleroy–Vashon, Fauntleroy–Southworth, Southworth–Vashon, Point Defiance–Tahlequah, Port Townsend–Coupeville, and Anacortes–San Juan Islands. Delay predictions cover the nine crossings where we have enough history. Anacortes–San Juans runs on the published schedule, and the app says so rather than guessing. PRIVACY Your location stays on your phone. Routing runs on-device through Apple Maps, and our servers only ever send data down - they never receive your location, your trips, or your passes.
