You can take a ferry from Bellingham to Whittier. There is one that takes 4 days and cars up to 19'. http://www.akferry.com/CrossGulf.htm
You do need a passport.
Actually, you don't.
No Passport Required - Bellingham WA to Whittier AK
If you do not get off the ferry in Prince Rupert, the only Canadian stop, then you do not need a passport. If you get off in Haines and plan to drive the rest of the way to Anchorage, you do, as you pass through Canada. Otherwise, you go from US port to US port - no passport required.
I pointed out this specific trip because it states that there is no passport required and this was the fastest way as there is no required change of boats like other routes.
