MV Island Home is a ferry built by VT Halter Marine in 2005 for the Steamship Authority.

She replaced the MV Islander on the Authority's route between Woods Hole and Vineyard Haven.

[4][2] The Island Home is different from most vessels in the Steamship Authority fleet in that she is a double-ended ferry and does not have to turn around before entering a slip.

[1] She is powered by two Electro-Motive diesel engines, and has a top speed of 16 knots (18 mph).

[1] In October 2007, Island Home experienced a minor collision when the MV Governor struck her while departing Woods Hole; damage to both vessels was minimal.
