Friday was a bad day for Whidbey Island ferry users as the MV/Cathlamet crashed into the Mukilteo ferry dock for reasons not immediately known.

Service on the busy Mukilteo/Clinton route was suspended temporarily after the 6 a.m. collision, stranding hundreds of Whidbey Island commuters making their morning run to their jobs on the mainland.
