You can help name the new Washington State ferry

And you won't be able to use anything with "Mc" or "Face" in it.

As WSDOT is about to drop a new ferry in the pond, it's also time to give the big ol' ship a sweet name and despite how badly it's gone for other online contesting - see Boaty McBoatface - they're inviting us to help.

Where they are smarter than other contest: they've predetermined the list of acceptable names from which to choose.


Wishkah
Stillaguamish
Snoqualmie
Enie Marie
Stehekin
Muckleshoot

The Seattle Times said the list, before being whittled down included names like M/V Sir Floats-A-Lot, The Krakenator, Always Late or the MV DB Cooper. I personally would have liked Trogdor or The Burninator.

You have until November 30th to participate and the final name will be announced in December.

And you won't be able to use anything with "Mc" or "Face" in it.
