The Winter Harbor Marine Center, which is the terminal for ferry service to Bar Harbor, has been listed for sale for $4.95 million. Maine does have a Working Waterfront Access Protection Program that, through the Land for Maine’s Future Program, provides matching funds to help preserve waterfront properties for commercial fishing and aquaculture use. But the process under that program is complex and relatively slow moving. In late December, Liscomb said that there had been no apparent progress towards sorting out the future of the marine center property. “There’s been no follow up, no changes,” Town Manager Sara Liscomb said. “There’s been a lot of talk but no money.”
