Touring Alaska without a cruise ship

Post by jhs »

We've heard of the opportunity of cruising the coast from USA to Alaska on mail boats. Any truth to this?

Mail boats?

Post by Newman »

I remember some stories about the old mail boat in Prince William Sound out of Valdez - The Siren,maybe.

I don't know about rides, however. And it would be a pretty long trip from the US... I know the State ferry is a 4 day trip, maybe 5 and expensive!

You know, I saw the State Ferry in Bellingham WA the other day. I saw it out of the corner of my eye as I was going thru town and thought "Blue Canoe!"
