In 1949-1952 she was back on the Fauntleroy to Vashon Island run. In 1952 to 1961 she was on the Hood Canal. In 1961-1967 she was a backup ferry. In 1967 she was owned by Howard Risdon who moored her in Lake Union as a warehouse. In 1975 she was sold to the Port of Coos Bay Oregon to be used as a restaurant. The venture fell through, and instead she was sold to Emery Hanson of Charleston OR USA who removed her superstructure to become a shore-based warehouse. Her hull was eventually disassembled, the the remaining timbers and planks of the Crosline became part of a fishing boat and a dock. |
