It is too bad that after all these years the ferry LeConte managed to hit a rock, but I do hope this will be a wakeup call to the ferry system planners. With the LeConte out of service for who knows how long, I would like to see them give the Fairweather to Sitka, and keep our trusty and loved Taku for the day-boat run in Lynn Canal, and keep Skagway and Haines connected daily for the summer again.
