On the ferry
A camper van at a median 19 feet falls in the under 30 foot fare band. In that band Washington State Ferries charges roughly double if the vehicle stands over 7 feet 2 inches tall, and only 33 of 473 Seattle listings publish a height. Compare the crossings.
What to do with this
Book a van when the itinerary is fixed and the campgrounds are small. It is the only class that goes almost everywhere without checking each site.
$123 a day more than a travel trailer, which is the price of not having to verify a length limit at every stop.
