Landscaping on the islands
Just trying to get an idea how much interest there is to get landscaping out on the islands? I know there are companies that do it already but most only do it in addition to the major stuff they do( dock work ,breakwaters, etc)
Any interest in this??? I have been looking at bardges and smaller craft for this purpose. |

I agree it would be worthwhile. We had some work done a few years back and could use mulch, loam etc to even the yard out as well as a few other things done.
I could see the need for spring cleanups and yardwork for many. |

I agree, island landscaping would be well received. Has Barry Ennis sold his barge? It was a good one for what you are looking for. I think Barry is in Tuftenboro, did a lot of contract work on the islands before he decided to stay land side.

Well it is good to know that there is some interest out there. I have located a barge that is kind of in my price range and have a few more details to work out, like a place to house it for the time it would be in the water.
I currently have a boat to be able to do small jobs just hard to take stuff away and bring any type of bulk material with me. I could do some small mulch jobs to start and bringing hand and small power tools would not be a problem. |

We could use some tree work and cutting (and possibly removing) of trees that have fallen. Will you be offering that type of work too?
