The vessel will use a hybrid diesel–electric engine and is expected to enter service in 2027,[1] with a capacity of 144 cars and 1,500 passengers. The ferry was named for the Wishkah River on the Olympic Peninsula.[2]

The vessel is planned to be used on the Mukilteo–Clinton ferry, which is also served by sister vessel MV Suquamish.[3]
