The Mahans


Hi, my name is David Mahan, but everyone calls me Shake. I've lived here in Islesboro, Maine for almost 20 years, but often fled elsewhere to work for the winter months. I met my wife Linda (aka Loony) about 10 years ago, and we were married in 1987. Our son Max was born 3 years ago. I have owned and operated two businesses here, The Island Pub (1978-1979), which served pizza and beer and was reknowned for the best live music anywhere (don't remind the neighbors!), and the Blue Heron Restaurant (1988-1992), a more refined establishment which received many favorable reviews from regional and national critics. More recently, my wife and I have managed the Sunset Terrace at Cliffdwellers in Nevis, West indies, and the restaurant at the Dark Harbor House in Islesboro. Come back soon for an update on our plans for the future.
