Gouldsboro Scuttlebutt

Scuttlebutt is Gouldsboro’s newly published guide for folks who have just come to Gouldsboro or are thinking about buying property here. As Scuttlebutt says in its introduction, “Gouldsboro’s economy and character depend on sustaining a working waterfront rooted in an attentive, respectful relationship to the sea.” The booklet explains what that means. Thank you to the Gouldsboro Shore volunteers for putting this beautifully illustrated book together!
