Has anyone ever thought of a floating restaurant specificaly for the fisherman? Someone could be out on the river every day makeing and selling burgers, fries, and hot dogs. seems like a good idea to me, except the fact that you’ll probally need a restaraunt liscense.
and a food handlers license and a sales tax license and insurance…
Drones from an established restaurant is the way to go. 
Sounds like a good idea with too many hurtles. On the flip-side I wouldn’t want to see the water littered with floating food stands either. I would more like to see better dockage in the towns. Like Prescott, Stillwater and Hudson. None of those places make it easy for a boater to park and walk. Afton is the only acceptable public dock in my opinion but its too far from town.
I know in Finland they have saunas on boats.

Which would mean you’d be required by law to wash your hands after sexing the minnows. 
Idk, use to eat once in a while out of those food vendor trucks just BC I had a bathroom readily accessible. Probably wouldn’t touch one in a boat. Might be a good way to get those scour hole guys out of there, one way or another . 
It’s been a thought of many but the FDA and the licences and blah blah blah has turned many with the same idea away.
here’s one of many examples: A gutted out houseboat on the Croix turned into a kitchen\restaurant. Perfect for campers North of Stillwater, in Hudson and at the kinni amid the thousands of other boats out on a weekend. Once a brilliant idea, then person with idea pursued until found out the amount of licensing and costs to maintain would be now that idea is nothing more than an old idea.
A local bar owner used to haul a grill on wheels around the lake on weekends during ice fishing season. He would stop at every shack and ask if anyone was interested in buying something to eat. Burgers,brats,hotdogs,hot sandwiches,chips,drinks etc. That only lasted one winter as I don’t think it paid enough to cover his expenses.

Since the Miss river is owned by the gov and not the state, wouldn’t you need some sort of permit from the gov?
There is a boat down here that does it, its a converted houseboat and I believe its called the “burger barge” or something like that. Sells burgers, dogs, ice cream, and soda. I doubt they have any sort of license, as they are always drunk and hollering when they drive past us on the river.

That sounds so American. 
Thought there used to be one right in front of lion levee on pool 2.
Floating restaurant to much work to put together. No more bar/restraurants right on the water front is the way to go. One thing that make no sense to me is establishments on the water front with no or limited window to see the water.
