Furry Steamship Cruise: Seattle to Port Orchard
Lake union park, 860 Terry Ave N, Seattle, WA, USThe SS Virginia V is a 104-year-old wooden steamship that used to be a ferry from Seattle to Tacoma via Vashon Island. But now she does sight-seeing cruises around the Puget Sound. Let's fill her up with furries!
Tickets are $40 and must be purchased in advance here: https://donorbox.org/events/956412
This will be a one-way cruise on September 12th, 11:30 boarding, 12:00 SHARP departure from Lake Union Park in Seattle. (Behind MOHAI)
Landing in beautiful Port Orchard, estimated time of arrival 4pm (Locks dependent.) Yes, this means going through the Ballard Locks with the ship, a marvel of engineering and a place where hundreds of tourists will gawk at the sight of a 100 year old steamship full of furries!
(This is a one-way trip, as the ship is repositioning for a cruise the next day.Virginia V will be docking directly next to the Port Orchard ferry dock. The convenient foot ferry runs to Bremerton, where you can choose to take the fast ferry or Auto ferry back to Seattle. Or the 186 bus, which runs from Port Orchard to the Southworth Foot Ferry, which will return you to Seattle.
You're welcome to bring your own food and snacks aboard. The onboard bar will be open with drinks available for purchase.
Outside alcohol is not permitted.This cruise also serves as a fundraiser for the 501c3 non-profit that keeps this ship operating. Half a million was spent on the Virginia V in 2025 alone to keep this incredibly unique piece of history in action! All profits from ticket sales go direct to the Steamer Virginia V Foundation, as well as all the raffle tickets for the charity raffle that will be held onboard.
Please note: Virginia V is not considered ADA accessible, due to her age, there are steps in order to board and disembark the ship.
