USCGC Atalanta

USCGC Atalanta (WPC-102) was a 165 ft, steel-hulled, diesel-powered Thetis-class patrol boat of the United States Coast Guard.

History
She was launched on 16 June 1934 at the Seattle shipyard of Lake Union Dry Dock & Machine Works, one of 18 Thetis-class patrol boats. She was commissioned on 20 September 1934 and assigned to Seattle, Washington where she conducted rescue and law enforcement operations as well as annual Bering Sea patrols. In September 1942, Atalanta was assigned to the United States Navy Western Sea Frontier where she conducted convoy escort and patrol duty. She was one of the early ships in the "Alaskan Navy".

Atalanta was decommissioned on 1 August 1950 and was placed in mothball at the Coast Guard mooring in Kennydale, Renton, Washington. On 7 December 1954, she was sold to Birchfield Boiler, Inc., of Tacoma, Washington for $7,156.
