Victoria Star 2 is a 96 ft. passenger only foot ferry owned and operated by Pacific Cruises LLC. The ferry operates during summer months between Bellingham, Washington, United States, and the Inner Harbour in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, making one round trip daily.

The vessel started her life as a mud boat ferrying supplies and personnel in the Gulf of Mexico. Converted into a passenger ferry, she later served the islands off Los Angeles, California (including Catalina Island). She was later purchased by her current owner and brought to her current homeport of Bellingham, Washington where she continues to serve as a tourist vessel.

Primary power is provided by three (3) Detroit Diesel 12V-71 TI (Turbo - Intercooled) engines each driving its own propeller. Auxiliary power is supplied by Detroit Diesel generators. Typically a crew consisting of one captain, one mate (unlicensed) and two deckhands operate the vessel during each trip.
