This is a great place and a great time to be had for all ages in a beautiful little town. The boats are a thrill.

BTW, Welcome to the Forums neighbor.

Hey, are you two related?

If you haven't been to Sayville before let me say that it's a real nice town with a Main St. full of interesting shops. It's also a town with a Long maritime tradition especially baymen. Go to www.limaritime.org for info on the Long Island Maritime Museum and it's activities.

Maybe way back when, from the Farer family on the old sod!

I've been to Sayville, and once even took the "wrong" ferry to Fire Island!

Yeah, that can be an ahem, eye opening experience.
