Underwater debris is unsightly when it can be seen from the water's surface and it can be downright deadly when it is hidden below the surface. Debris is a nuisance and a hazard to boat owners, anglers, swimmers, skiers, and other water enthusiasts.

If you live on the water, MCII will free your dock and seawall area of debris for a minimum donation of $500, which will go toward future waterway cleanup efforts.

If you would like to free your "backyard" of unsightly and potentially hazardous debris, contact Captain Don.

300,000 pounds of debris removed to date - and that was only while we were counting!
