Officials were optimistic that the repairs could be completed by Thursday morning, but they decided to suspend operations since they weren't going to be done in time.

"Hingham Ferry service is suspended on Thursday, October 28, while we make repairs to the Hingham Dock," said the MBTA on Twitter. "Ferry service to Hull will operate as scheduled. Customers can use our trip planner for alternate service options: http://mbta.com/trip-planner."
