First mistake is letting government employees board your ferry to your private island! Unincorporate and let Brunswick County serve you and get there best they can but don't have offices on the island for them. Your home is going to burn down anyway if theres a fire in steady island winds. Stand around with hoses and spray your roofs and do like the old days. Neighborhood watch is more effective than police anyway and any citizen can take out a warrant so tune up your video cameras, clean he sea spray off the lense and handle petty thieves with video and warrants.
