Mail Boat Aleta

I have already published photos and stories of the Aleta in past blog posts and in Ocracoke Newsletters. This month our Newsletter continues that coverage with a reprint of a 1948 article about Ocracoke Island's iconic Mail Boat Aleta. This article provides another perspective on this vessel that kept Ocracoke connected with the mainland of North Carolina...and the rest of the outside world.
