    “On the Ebb” - Black duck hunting film by Field & Stream

    J~ Yesterday I drove over to Captree to look for the offending signage.... Looks like wiser heads have prevailed since I last checked. However, this kiosk looks a bit "wrong" - maybe a just spot for local advertisers/vendors? In any event, I could not find a State Parks Prohibition sign...

    Boat ride anyone?

    All~ I am on Long Island this weekend. Rain all day yesterday and about 45 degrees here today. But...calling for about 15 inches of snow Sunday into Monday. I hope to drive north ahead of the storm - getting back home where no snow is expected. Otherwise, everything around the farm -...

    Boat building: Stiffening a plywood hatch cover -- I don't want it to flex.

    Matthias~ This is one of those seat-of-the-pants engineering challenges we all face. Sometimes we just need to try something. My instinct would be to glue-and-glass 2 cleats that were scribed to the curve of your cover. I would use lengths of Mahogany or SYP - 3/4 thick by about 1.5 inches...

    54th Annual Long Island Decoy & Sporting Collectables Show (Images)

    Anthony~ As you know, March 7 is running right at us. I got a big boost today when I met with your neighbor in Amityville. I met with Paul deQuillfeldt at the boatyard where he works. As I pulled in, I spied (of course!) a Seaford Skiff - one built by a Ketcham - a name all "up West" Great...

    American Oyster catcher reference?

    Jode~ Indeed! and - they fly like a duck! I have seen them many times on Long Island - and in their breeding colonies in the warmer months. I have also seen them in small flocks near inlets in mid-Winter. We saw this one in Finland in 2023 (with my daughter's family). It's the Eurasian...
