Vallejo Baylink Ferry is a public water transportation service provided by the City of Vallejo, California and is operated by the Blue & Gold Fleet, with four high-speed ferries and the Route 200 Vallejo Baylink Bus. Service is provided from the Vallejo Ferry Terminal located at Mare Island Way and Georgia Street, San Francisco's Pier 1 located at Embarcadero and Washington Street with select trips departing Pier 41 adjacent to Fisherman's Wharf. Passengers enjoy convenient scheduling, full ADA accessibility, and a scenic, stress-free alternative to traffic congestion in the North Bay region.

These sister ships are identical vessels completed in 1997 expressly for the Vallejo ferry service to be known as Baylink. As with the VALLEJO before them, funding for these vessels also came from the North Bay Ferry Demonstration Project in the wake of the 1989 earthquake. The vessels were designed by Advanced Multihull Designs of Australia, and were built at Dakota Creek Shipyard in Anacortes, Washington. These 34 knot, 300 passenger catamarans were the first true high speed ferries to operate on San Francisco Bay. The INTINTOLI is named in honor of Mayor Anthony Intintoli, Jr. who, in his first term as mayor, was instrumental in obtaining the required funding for vessel construction. The MARE ISLAND is named in honor of the Mare Island Ferry Company and its owners the Raahauge Family. The Mare Island Ferry Company operated for many years carrying well over a million shipyard workers from Vallejo across the strait to the historic U.S. Navy shipyard located on Mare Island.
