'Ice Cream Float' Returns to Marblehead Harbor

Ocean Ice Cream will be operating in Marblehead Harbor this summer.


Local boaters looking to beat the heat this summer will have a new option on the water, an ice cream float - no not the kind that comes in a cup. 

The Ocean Ice Cream boat will be run by Marblehead residents Will Herlihy and Andrew Graf, who will take over a business started several years ago when the Etholm family bought the boat and started the business.

"We plan on selling novelty ice creams, similar to those found in a standard ice cream truck," Herlihy said. "We plan on operating late morning through afternoons and through dinner time on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and will operate during the week if weather allows." 
 
The best way to get the latest information about Ocean Ice Cream is to follow the business on twitter @OceanIceCream or Instagram: Ice_Cream_Float1. 

What do you think of this idea? Will you be looking for the float this summer?
