Do any of the area towns or the Marine Patrol have any small hovercraft to get to the islands or disabled boats during times of partial ice-in and ice out?

'Seems to me if they're looking to spend more money, those hover thingies could fit the bill nicely and they'd be far cheaper than a helicopter

I seem to recall seeing a few such hovercraft parked by the Maine Forest Service building on Moosehead Lake in Greenville once.
