About Sechelt Queen
MV Chinook was a luxury automobile ferry designed by William Francis Gibbs, that operated between Seattle, Port Angeles and Victoria under the ownership of Puget Sound Navigation Company. MV Chinook was built in 1947 by Todd Shipyard, in Seattle, and entered service with Puget Sound Navigation Company. Upon entering service the vessel proved to be quite successful. But by the time the vessel had entered service, Black Ball Line was undergoing fare cuts, worker strikes, and other problems. In 1950 Washington State purchased Puget Sound Navigation Company. The State of Washington took over its operations in 1951, the Chinook was still occasionally seen departing Coleman Ferry Dock for trips to Port Angeles and Victoria. The vessel was removed from the route in 1954 and transferred to Black Ball Ferry Line. In 1955 the vessel was moved into Esquimalt Greaving Dock for annual refit.
