    Labor Day Weekend Raft Up N. shore Long Island

    I have a feeling there are going to be winds out of the east that may make for a bit of a rough time on the sound on Friday into Saturday. Forecast is calling for cloudy skies and a slight chance of showers. Doesn't look like a great boating day. Sunday and Monday are looking better

    Clarion XMD1 Wired remote cut out

    I replaced the old Clarion remote last year with the Fusion RNX300 remote. The RNX300 was able to fit in the existing cutout without a problem. I don't recall the model of the Clarion, but given our boots are the same year, I would imagine we both had he same Clarion remote.

    Recommendations for a Dog Ramp?

    Trip recommendations from LI NY

    Not sure where your homeport is, so that makes it hard to offer suggestions. All of those offered are great destinations. There is also Mattituck, nice little town and you can hire a car and do some excellent wine tasting, shop the framers markets etc.
