摘要：	First, the bad news: Washington State Ferries, the largest ferry system in the U.S., is in dire need of newer, cleaner vessels. The fleet of 21 RoPax ferries is clearly insufficient in both number and condition. Older, less reliable boats that should be retired are still being pressed into service, often at high cost. Reliability is a problem. As of Sept. 20, 2,660 trips have been canceled this year. Problems termed "vessel mechanical" accounted for 567 or 21% of those cancelled trips. Over the past decade, the ferry system has canceled thousands of trips due to mechanical problems.
