BREMERTON — Kitsap Transit said it will be removing the vessel Admiral Pete from Foot Ferry service Wednesday, Jan. 4 for required maintenance.

The Rich Passage 1 will operate Port Orchard-Bremerton service and the Carlisle II will operate Annapolis service.

The Carlisle II cannot keep up with the current published schedule and will operate 1/2 hour service departing Annapolis at 6 a.m., 6:30 a.m., 7 a.m., 7:30 a.m. and 8 a.m.. To accommodate passenger loads, an extra crew member will be put aboard the Carlisle II. That vessel can carry up to 140 passengers.

The afternoon service should not be affected, as the Admiral Pete is expected to return to service.
