Since 2005 Ricky Carter has been the Seadrift Harbor Master. That’s 14 years! Just what does a harbor master do? I wondered that myself and here is what I found out!
1. Ricky has oversight of all the stall rentals.
2. He mediates between commercial leases and the City.
3. He alerts the GLO (General Land Office) and the Coast Guard about any sunk boats.
4. He coordinates and oversees community service for municipal and JP courts in Calhoun County, and
every so often, in outlying counties. (The fishing cleaning table at the Seadrift harbor was built by Ricky and
Community Service workers.)
5. He monitors the street lights at the harbor.
Thank you, Ricky, for all that you do for the community! Keep up the good work!
