Sorry I cant make the trip with you guys.....I'll be in Florida....starting 4/18 for a week....shopping for more property.

Have a safe trip...see you when you get her home.
 
Mine is waxed, gassed, and ready to go. Just waiting to get a little bit of fiberglass work done, then I'll paint the bottom and call the boat hauler.
 
John......Gregs been a busy man on my canal ....splashin boats. Whens he on your canal ?
 
I'm in. Ran her today and unfortunately had to put a bunch of diesel in her - ouch. But worth it! It was great to be back on the water. Sleeping on her tonight. Doesnt get better! A great season to all.
 
Went to the boat this AM, open seacocks for the Mains & Gen, went to the helm to start em up

Gen & Starboard started on first crank, Port batteries wasted- moved one of the new Starboard batteries and Port started on first crank as well.

After having diesels for about 10 Years it still amazes me how they can be instant on after sitting for 4 months
 
Spent day in Tobay Saturday then ran down Babylon cut then west to ss3 for dinner . No buoys in lindenhurst cut ! Fishing jerks are in and being jerks

Another year has begun

I saw him on my canal Thursday putting boats in.
I'm going to use the boat hauler and his trailer to go back in this year. I changed the fence around on my property so that I can take it apart. The boat hauler put it up for me in the fall.
I set it up that way to make the re-power easier. It's also a lot more convenient being able to go in and out by appointment, and a little cheaper too.
Not sure if I'll go back to using the crane again or not. Gregg was good, but the way he puts it up, if anything happens to him I'm screwed.
 
Soy new pretty awesome. After a full weekend of work we should be in by this weekend. Looking forward to getting in there! Glad to see how the season is shaping up.

Tides not looking good for that day.

Have a great season everyone.

My plan was to splash this Friday and run the boat east to its new berth, in Eastport. Unfortunately, it looks like low tide in Moriches Bay is going to be mid-day evry day this week, just when I planned on crossing the bay on the way to Eastport. I may delay until next week just to give myself more "water." My timing's also going to depend on getting a friend or relative to come with me during the week to be my first mate. I've got some phone calls to make this evening to get a volunteer! Hy
 
Anyone have a preference as to which tide tables they like for around here. This is my first full season on LI and it seems the tides play a tremendous factor at some of the shallow spots.

Thanks - and sorry for the typo's yesterday. iPad fingers!
 
Splash date? Actually there will be several. A splash is how much go juice will be hitting the tanks when I pull up to the fuel dock!

Six bridges from East Rockaway inlet.

Atlantic Beach - shouldn't need an opening with antennas down.

Long Beach Leeds RR - Everyone but a kayak needs an opening.

Long Beach Rd Br - I think always tended - on demand.

Issue as you know is the Loop, Meadowbrook and Wantagh. One tender drives between them.

Best to call.
 
Steve,
I dont know if u know the Babylon cut. Its maybe 40' wide. This PUTZ in ISLAND GAL is anchored almost dead center in the channel. Its dead low tide and He's giving me the stink eye .... Not the way to start the season.

Ill leave the Wantagh Draw bridge out . Everyone knows the story there .
