The Sophie C has some problems with her hull. They tried some patching last week but there are still problems. Right now they are sandblasting the hull so it can be evaluated.
There will be some shifting of schedules and starting next Monday the Doris E will be the temporary mail boat. One problem with the switch is that the Doris does not have an electrical system compatible with an ice cream freezer. It might seem trivial, but the island children (and some adults) really look forward to visits from the "ice cream boat".
