The Ship's bar will be serving Alcoholic and N/A drinks (including selections from our local cidery, Slightly Furry) as well as snacks. You can also buy some merch, or raffle tickets to win some prizes! All proceeds go to the 501c3 "Steamer Virginia V Foundation"
Landing in beautiful Port Orchard, estimated time of arrival 4pm (Locks dependent.) Last year, the Locks workers and tourists loved seeing the ship full of furries transit through!
(This is a one-way trip, as the ship is repositioning for a cruise the next day. Virginia V will be docking directly next to the Port Orchard ferry dock. The convenient foot ferry runs to Bremerton ($2), where you can choose to take the fast ferry($2) or Auto ferry (free) back to Seattle. Or the 186 bus, which runs from Port Orchard to the Southworth Foot Ferry, which will return you to Seattle)
This cruise also serves as a fundraiser for the 501c3 non-profit that keeps this ship operating. Half a million was spent on the Virginia V in 2025 alone to keep this incredibly unique piece of history in action! All profits from ticket sales go direct to the Steamer Virginia V Foundation, as well as all the raffle tickets for the charity raffle that will be held onboard.
