    Surprise, surprise, surprise!! Influx of armchair boaters causes rise in boating accidents!!

    Have to agree. It is the "it's all about me mentality" Seems boating has gotten more dangerous in the last two years. More boats on the water and more untrained people at the wheel.

    The Good Samaritan law shields the average citizen from lawsuits for assisting fellow citizens/boaters Ask any attorney you know about this law, they will clarify it for you. NY state wants the average citizen/boater to assist another boater in distress

    Advice Needed - Fishing Falkner Island for the First Time

    Pretty much the only thing biting in the sound right now is porgies. You can drift for them using a small hook with clams or worms. You could try drifting for fluke but that has been hit or miss, mostly miss. You may get a few fluke but most dont make the 19 in minimum size. Fishing in the...

    Why is boat soap so expensive?

    The above is correct. Dish soap has surfactants in it. They will strip the wax off the car or boar. Once and a while you can get away with dish soap but don't use it all the time.

    Will the DEC ever build a boat launching ramp on Peconic Bay ????

    Stopped by today. The site and ramp are beautiful. Seems to be some additional land that could be used for parking. Having only 33 spots for cars and trailer are a concern. Some of the site is still being developed. There is a wash down station that is not operational yet.
