Delivering mail by jumping from a moving boat [video]

"On average, probably once a week or so, somebody will go in the lake. Most of the time when they miss, they miss coming back onto the boat. So somebody's outgoing mail might get wet.

We've got a little pool skimmer down below. If we have to, we have somebody lean out the door and scoop stuff back up out of the lake."
