[1] Traffic increased and by 1924, the Skansies were able to put another ferry on the route, the City of Steilacoom, with a capacity for 30 automobiles.

The City of Steilacoom had a single deck with a small elevated control room, and a ramp, and looked like a powered barge.

[3] In 1967 Pierce County bought the wooden-hulled motor ferry Tourist II (98 ft (29.87 m), 95 tons, capacity: 22 automobiles), which had been running on the Astoria–Megler route from 1924 to 1966, and renamed the vessel Islander.

Four runs per day detour to Ketron either from (mornings) Steilacoom Dock or back from Anderson Island (evenings).
