    Now the Chinese are building Downeast Lobster Boats!

    Saw the Grandsea 45 Footer on Alibaba for $150,000. Looks just like one from Maine ! 1989 my family purchased a 31 foot BHM hull from Flye Point Marine and we built a lobster boat. Not hard to build one of those boats . We paid $10,000 for the Hull , we went up to Brooklyn and paid for it...

    New Cod Recovery Plan

    Ling survived the nets because many hid in rocks/wrecks, unlike the Whiting. Isn't that a clue it was over fishing ? Took 15 years for the Ling to come back strong again. I bet they're doing their best to exploit bergalls as well.

    New Cod Recovery Plan

    The cod fishing in the 1970's was far worse than it is today.They kicked the foreign fleet out in 1976 and 4 years later there was excellent cod fishing again. Took 4 or 5 years to rebuild the Cod Stock in the late 1970's. There's illegal fishing going on up North and too much by catch. The...

    NY should build a Boat Ramp in Montauk

    Peconic Bay/Orient offers almost the same quality fishing as Montauk does, but it would be nice having a ramp in Orient State Park and Montauk for those special occasions. There's no excuse not building one in a State Park , out in Montauk they might be able to build one at Hither Hills State...

    NY should build a Boat Ramp in Montauk

    Right next to Star Island Marine ( on the road leading to the US Coast Guard Station ) there's about 5 acres of land and it would be perfect for a new boat launching ramp there. Last time I was out there the property was for sale. Couldn't the state buy that land with fishing fund money and put...

    Operation Pastorious - What really happened out there on Amagansett Beach

    Capt. Linder took the Rio Tercero Log Book to cover up the sinking and then they were going to machine gun the survivors. 37 survivors saw the machine guns come out. It was a miracle the plane arrived when it did and stopped that from happening. Crazy what happened off NY and NJ during the war.

    Operation Pastorious - What really happened out there on Amagansett Beach

    The Rio Tercero incident was probably the reason why Capt. Linder was relieved of command at the end of the war patrol. From June12Th until the sinking of the Rio Tercero, Linder must of been going out of his mind and when he realized he sank a Neutral Ship he thought the worst. . He nearly...

    Operation Pastorious - What really happened out there on Amagansett Beach

    Read the U202 Interrogation report again- survivors of the SS Rio Tercero saw the name Innsbruck in white letters on the Conning tower of U202 . So they did surface and came real close where they could read that name.

    Operation Pastorious - What really happened out there on Amagansett Beach

    Did a little research on the sinking of the SS Rio Tercero and what I read is terrifying! The SS Rio Tercero was sunk on June 24th by U202. It was a neutral Argentine Freighter. Capt. Lindor sank it with 3 torpedoes and it went down in 10 minutes. 5 men on board the ship died. The survivors...

    Hunter Harassment

    More than anything it's to protect those protestors from being shot. The only anti hunting reactions most of us will experience are when we come home with a deer on the back of our cars. One time I was coming home from an Upstate hunt, I think it was the first deer my family ever shot . We...

    St Johns Basketball

    St. John's might fall out of the Top 25 and Seton Hall gets in the Top 25. Very depressing they haven't beat a top 25 team this season with all that talent. Team hasn't meshed yet , I hope they turn this season around. No doubt they'll blow Seton Hall away .The team is demoralized with no...

    Operation Pastorious - What really happened out there on Amagansett Beach

    Operation Pastorius Part 4: The 4 spies checked into their hotels and then went out to buy new clothing, have good meals and no doubt they stood with the big crowds that day in NYC and watched the NY At War Parade. You can see the NY At War Parade on You Tube. Really nice seeing what it was like...
