While I agree that something like Burton Island would be very attractive on Winni. I think that one of the big obstacles, would be setting something up that could handle the volume of visitors that would likely want to use it.

Lets look at Ragged Island for instance, while they have the land to put a few campsites, and maybe a couple of small cabins... That just the problem they really only have the ability to put a very small number of them. Then you have to have docking for every campsite.

At the end of the day, I don't think they could make it profitable.... As there would need to be employees on staff etc. I am not saying that it isn't doable.... just not easily profitable.....

There are a few other Islands where this could potentially be looked at, but once again the scale just isn't right. Burton Island was established long ago....
