21 <br /> Report of the Harbor Master <br /> To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: <br /> Gentlemen & Madam: <br /> I hereby submit my report as Harbor Master of the <br /> ms Town of Mashpee for the year 1955. <br /> be <br />;he Ten temporary channel markers were placed in Little <br /> in River and on the sand bar, entering Waquoit Bay at Warren's <br /> gay Point. These markers served two purposes: <br /> ad. 1. To utilize the wash from the larger motor boats to <br /> ful help deepen the channel. <br /> 2. To minimize the breakage in the scallop beds. <br /> ing <br /> Better markers are needed. They should be permanent <br /> buoys instead of stakes. Buoys would provide better visi- <br /> bility at night; cut down on maintenance work, and would <br /> better withstand ice damage. <br /> Some improvement in channel depth was obtained, but <br /> this was only temporary. Dredging is recommended. <br />[ell Due to the recent hurricanes, there are numerous ob- <br /> structions on the bottom. Many have been removed but the <br /> larger ones still remain. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> JOHN A. MOORE, <br /> Harbor Master <br />
