Some of the last remaining undeveloped islands in Casco Bay have been preserved in perpetuity thanks to an outpouring of community donations. The Maine Coast Heritage Trust, a nonprofit land conservation organization, has raised $1.3 million to purchase and preserve three small islands: Little Whaleboat West, Nate and Tuck. The islands, located just off the coast of Harpswell, add to a chain of protected islands already conserved by the trust including Whaleboat Island, the largest undeveloped island in Casco Bay.
