Pelorus Mail Boat tour

Booked our tix, packed our lunch and had a lovely day on the water. Levon is as much a comedic entertainer as a skilled pilot. Run by Marlborough Tours who have the contract with NZ Post for mail delivery, the boat stops in on a dozen hardy Sounds residents just once a week. There is a guy who runs an online shoe business, so he has big deliveries and shipments every time! At another stop, 5th generation sheep farmers are holding on tenaciously and another is/was a popular BnB. We drop off a young couple who are to spend a few weeks in their granddad's cottage. Some stops don't even touch land - two mail bags, one to and one from, pass each other mid-air across a meter or two of water! See other Footprints for a sample of the stops. This was the Monday run and we enjoyed it so much we'll be back for the Friday route asap! Thanks Levon and Summer.もっと詳しく
