Hello All

My name is john I live on Long Island and I am new to this foram I looking for other boat owners in my neck of the woods ( Babylon) and where is it you take your boat too
 
Hello,

Welcome to Great South Bay Boating, we have our boat at Surfside 3 in Lindenhurst and have been there for 6 years now. If I can give you any help just give a shout !!!!
 
We keep the boat on the GSB as well. Welcome to the forum and to baoting in general. There's lots of places to enjoy from Fire Island (my favorite is Watch Hill) to the Connetquot River for a peaceful raft up to points east and out of the bay. Have fun.
 
thanks for the warm welcome
I am sure i will be asking many questions this spring

Hey....John welcome.......Copiague here. I keep the boat behind my house..........You'll see us at Cedar Beach alot. We also have a dog thats with us all the time on the boat. Not to many dog friendly places on Long Island. Cedar is OK.....as long as the dog stays on the boat... ( while the dock master is around )..... :) :)

Any questions...........ask away !!!

Hello Dancer

So Fire Island is not really that dog friendly then :huh: I was looking on a map and it seems like there would be some remote beaches you could hang out on

Hey Salt

I was looking for a hard copy And from what i have herd garmin is the way to go I was looking at a smaller model
 
Rock......You may be able to anchor out off a remote beach along Fire Island.... and wade in with the dog.....and get away with it. I've never done it......but when you go to a public marina......the dock masters usually have an issue with dogs.

But your right.....there are alot of isolated beaches along the Island..........

The dog issue really $uck$ I am looking forward to meeting everyone and having a beer and burger
 
Yeah...........Its not too bad............we just play the game.....but bring the dog everywhere we go on the boat............he's like our kid.

Lookin forward to meet all you guys too.......
 
be carefull of taking the dog to Fire Island. afriend of mine did that and got a summons to court and had to pay a big $500.00 in fines. Most of the bay side beaches are private property, state or federal.

So dogs are not a loud on state or Federal land ? Thank You for that heads up I didnt know that and things on FI must be slow if they have nothing better to do than give that guy with his dog a ticket knowing it would cost him $500 WOW
