Seaplane dock in Alton Bay
The Issue
Alton Bay has a reputation of being one of, if not the most unique destination aviation has to offer. It has been made famous nationwide as being the only FAA recognized ice-runway in the continental US. For years, it has been known as the “Alton Bay seaplane base and ice runway”. Ironically, its accessibility in the warmer months is minimal, despite being deemed as a safe seaplane base. The resolution to this problem — a dock dedicated specifically to seaplanes.
Epic Seaplane Adventures has proposed to entirely fund, construct, and maintain a public-use dock that will allow the famous “Alton Bay seaplane base and Ice Runway” to be accessible year round.
As a lifelong resident of Alton, the opportunity to expand our town’s passion and rich history of aviation has always been a goal of mine. I ask that you please consider signing and being a part of Alton Bay’s next chapter!
