The Ocracoke Express passenger ferry has left the state shipyard and is on its way back to Hatteras, where it will resume its regular schedule Tuesday, June 18, an N.C. Ferry Division spokesman said Monday.
“There was an issue with the steering mechanism that required us to bring it into the shipyard for maintenance and repair,” Tim Hass, communications officer, said in an email. “We ran sea trials here today (Monday) and it should be back at the Hatteras terminal later Monday afternoon.”
The passenger ferry went out of service on June 11.
