Christina Nelson: "this is one of the greatest things to happen to our forgotten little community. For our children, it makes exposing them to cultural events in the city much easier and increases the frequency w/ convenience."
Valerie Harris: "I am moving to Port Townsend, but I am very concerned about the now three hour commute to Seattle using bus and Bainbridge Ferry should I have an emergency or some kind of problem. A direct ferry would be so much more practical and comforting."

Heather Sykes: "Oh wow I could go to Seattle or Kingston everyday"

Donald H. Baumer III
JP Baccarat: "A fantastic way to link 2 of the very best places on earth!"
Katya Taylor: "A Seattle-Port Townsend Ferry run seems like an obvious option for the times that we live in. With serious oil shortages looming in the not so distant future, we need to develop a stronger public transportation system and implement it before it becomes a crisis."
Natasha Meyers: "I think a ferry between these two communities would be wonderful. Port Townsend needs the business and it'd save so much money on gas prices that are always rising. "
Becca Turner
Jean M Sather
M Dressler: "It is imperative that the PT - Seattle ferry service becomes a reality. Start on weekends only, or weekends and holidays, but START !! then let consumers develop it further by their useage. "
ardith cole: "Please work to secure PT-Seattle ferry service---an Sound alternative when the Hood Canal bridge is not an option. Just as important, it's sure to help the PT economy. "
Kirk Waterhouse
jill dickson: "It would bring much needed commerce to P.T. w/o the traffic. Passengers would be very willing to pay more for fares especially in light of gas and parking prices."
A Ayres: "I think the service is under priced, i would pay more for the service and the opportunity to work and play in Seattle "
J. Lynn Hrenko: "This ferry will be a great asset to both Seattle and Port Townsend. Please consider it as part of a "highway" system and fund it. I would even be willing to pay to travel on the foot ferry each way."
Dean Olson: "At least for the weekends, please offer or permit foot service. If red tape can be eliminated and a private ferry offered, that would be great. I never go to Pt Townsend from Seattle but it\'s something I\'d do if ferry was offered. I\'d be willing to pay $20 round trip."
Mark England
Khrys Whiddon
Corey Wlkins: "Please keep the ferry! I live in Seattle and frequently visit the Olympic Peninsula. I love the area and would love to spend more time there with less car travel."

Pat Gray: "please keep the ferry alive!"
Aryanna Steele: "I will spend money in Seattle and Pt Townsend if Ferry is brought back. I know alot of people feel the same, many older folks that do not have access to a computer or the petition. Thank You."
Linda Abbott-Roe
Willard Westre: "Many times cars aren\'t the easiest way to get somewhere."
Patty Greeny: "I would also like to see a car ferry to Seattle as an option after this, especially with the Hood Canal bridge closing in 2009."
Tom Waggoner: "Passenger-only ferry service is critical to Port Townsends economic well-being. This service also allows people to not impact Seattles downtown traffic. A quick stop at Kingston provides passeners a way to get in & out of Seattle during peak hours without using the freeways."
Nicole Shelton
Nancy Elder
Corey Asbell
Craig Erickson: "Keeps one less car off the road. It\'s a very nice convenience, I\'d use it every week (several days). Could we get a year long pass as well?"
Pete DeBoer, Port of Kingston Commissioner: "Hundreds of people left their cars behind and enjoyed Seattle over the holidays. Seattleites came to PT for New Years Eve without cars. This is a no brainer. The West sound is long overdue for this kind of service. NO NEW PAVEMENT REQUIRED! A stop in Kingston couldn't hurt either. "
Rachel Rubinstein
Linda Young: "It would sure be nice if my daughter could take the ferry and work in downtown Seattle."
