This sound is from Ferry SFX Library

The sounds of a ferry's library are as diverse and intriguing as the vast array of experiences one can have while aboard a ship. From the low rumble of a large motorboat's engine to the gentle hum of a fridge opening in the ship's cabin Foley kitchen, every sound tells a story of life on the water. The hutchsfx of a boat ferry diesel engine as it powers through the waves, the double-ended ride pov stern brake docking shudder, and the high-speed Thai catamaran ferry idling and departing with crew voices and walkie-talkie chatter all create a symphony of maritime sounds that transport listeners to the open sea.
