Commemorate magazine available on ferries
Friday, June 29th, 2012Washington State Ferries will cap its 60th anniversary
celebration with a limited-edition magazine called Compass.
The keepsake publication is packed with information about
ferry-served destinations that will interest tourists and locals
alike, and historical and insider information about the nation’s
largest ferry system.
The magazine is free and was produced at no cost to Washington
State Ferries. The ferries system worked with maritime industry
publisher Philips Publishing Group to develop and create the
magazine as a final send-off to the yearlong celebration of the
state’s first ferry run on June 1, 1951. It’s available at all WSF
terminals and vessels.
Ferries Director David Moseley calls it “a wonderful snapshot of
all the fascinating places you can ride a ferry.”
The magazine also includes a brief history of the system,
interviews with a captain on the state’s busiest route and the only
female staff chief engineer in WSF’s history, a feature on
WSF’s achievements in marine rescues, maps and photos.
