The MV Island Home is a ferry built by VT Halter Marine in 2005 for the Steamship Authority. She replaced the MV Islander on the Authority's route between Woods Hole and Vineyard Haven. She has been serving the Woods Hole–Martha's Vineyard route since her maiden voyage on March 5, 2007. The Island Home is different from most vessels in the Steamship Authority fleet in that she is a double-ended ferry and does not have to turn around before entering a slip. Her keel was laid on April 27, 2005 and she was launched on July 21, 2006. Her final construction cost was $32.1 million.
