FS2004 Washington State Ferries on Puget Sound. This enhancement places several simple, but visually accurate AI Ferries making trips on Puget Sound to and from Seattle, Bremerton, Bainbridge Island and a few other docks which Microsoft provided. If you have been to this area, you know how important Ferry traffic is and seeing them in motion helps bring the scenery alive. The model is of the Washington State Ferry "Klahoia" by Dave Robbins which have been modified slightly to work as an AI craft. This enhancement has been tested on the default FS2004 scenery only. A few technical notes are included if you wish to experiment with adding AI Ferries to your own scenery. All necessary files are included. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the very simple installation instructions.
