On Monday, May 25th, the Anacortes/San Juan Islands route will operate on a Sunday schedule, which will provide an additional sailing from Orcas Island in the afternoon at 4:15pm.
The Sealth will pick up Anacortes-bound vehicles out of Friday Harbor at 5:30 pm, Orcas at 6:20pm, Shaw at 6:30 pm and Lopez at 7:00 pm (after dropping off any inter-island traffic) and will sail to Anacortes, arriving at 7:45 pm. The Elwha will pick up inter-island traffic from Lopez Island at 7:25 pm.
Historically, the Memorial Day weekend has been the busiest weekend of the year on the Anacorte/San Juan Islands, with vehicles sometimes waiting in line through two sailings.
