The Sophie C. is the oldest floating post office in the United States. Each season she provides mail service on Lake Winnipesaukee, a tradition dating back to 1892. Both of Sophie's daily mail runs takes her to 5 islands where her staff delivers mail to the island residents and summer camps. In addition to being a full-service post office where these residents may purchase postal supplies and stamps, Sophie also has indoor and outdoor seating as well as a collection of ice cream novelty treats and snacks for sale. Passengers aboard the Sophie C. are invited to fill out Sophie C. postcards and mail them right on board.
