Harry’s Island

[riser4]

The two main ones are:

1) no building within 75 feet of the lake.
2) no clearing vegetation within 35 feet of the lake.

Can you put in a dock of any kind? Boathouse is probably out? Portable shed by the water for boat supplies? Hopefully the small portion of the island that is 75' from all boundaries has some decent building sites? And enough space to clear for a decent solar array and a garden?

Will there be a bakery on the island?

Does a smokeshack count as a bakery ?

Needs more [emoji622]
Also, Turbo Otter on amphibs ftw. I've heard of Turbo Beavers. Not sure why anyone would spend that kind of money for what you get. Maybe someone is making new ones that make sense somehow?

Well since you are the mayor, the town council, and the building department of Harry Island I think that is a yes. Harry Island does indeed have a bakery which is also the library and holder or direction pointer to all questions that might be asked.

Also, in the event of a Melancholia like rogue planet striking our earth, the only safe refuge on or off the Island.

If you find a conch shell, throw it back in the water.

Yo uglymoney,

My boat was originally from Starks Marine in Prairie du Chein. If I remember correctly, didn’t your gramps know old man Stark real well ?

Mentioned this in the real estate thread, but think it's worth another post.

If you plan to use the island year round consider a small hovercraft for the swing seasons.

Boats will get you there in the summer. Sleds in the winter.

Spring and Fall when the ice is in but too thin to travel, hovercraft FTW.

Spent my summers as a kid at a camp on an island in Lake Winnepesaukee NH. Caretaker who was the only year long resident had a hovercraft to get to the shore when he needed to.

That was 25+ years ago, so maybe there are better options now.. or likely better machines than the old guy had.

But I mean shit. Hovercraft. How could you not want one now that you have reason to own one!

Absolutely. I was eyeing your boat up. At one time Starks Marine was the number one seller of Mercury Outboards in the entire country. Doesn't seem possible but it is true.

My grandpa was a good friend of old man Stark. When I'd tell him who I was he'd always tell me the story of the farm Turkey my grandpa shot the head off of on a bet. Standing shot from some unknown long range that seemed to get longer every time he told the story. Turkey dinner! I forget what my grandpa won. Probably a shot of whiskey.

His kids still run the store.

We still own land up the hill on the other side of the river.

Don't let your hovercraft fill up with eels.

I’m thinking an “I’ve islanded with Harry” shirt would round out my wardrobe. Congrats! I hope to visit sometime.

Either one of them portable rope tows the kids use for Urban stuntz or a sled with a rope, build a kicker, game on.

Fuck yes.

Now I want to buy an island so I have an excuse to get a hovercraft.

Sweet. Build a nice off grid tiny house and wave the finger at the world.

Congrats Harry.

Googled it, turns out personal hovercraft are legit. I’m going to seriously look into this.

For sure get one for shoulder ice season. Just make sure to budget $500 for a dry suit to have along in case it breaks down. Otherwise you're proper fucked needing heli rescue.
