About MV Quinault
MV Quinault was a Steel Electric-class ferry operated by Washington State Ferries. Originally built as MV Redwood Empire in Oakland, California for Northwestern Pacific, she started out serving Southern Pacific Railways on their Golden Gate Ferries line on San Francisco Bay. She was purchased by the Puget Sound Navigation Company (PSN) in 1940, brought to Puget Sound and renamed Quinault after the Quinault people, serving PSN until Washington State Ferries acquired and took over operations in 1951. In 2002, Quinault was featured in a scene in the movie The Ring. On November 20, 2007, the entire Steel Electric class was withdrawn from service due to hull corrosion issues. The Quinault was not in service at the time. On June 19, 2009, Washington State Ferries sold Quinault and the other Steel Electrics for $200,000.00 to Eco Planet Recycling, Inc. of Chula Vista, California.
