I can't believe you can just rent a boat here with no prior experience at all, but honestly this…read morewas pretty great. I booked a day boat here for an afternoon with four of my girlfriends. Upon check-in we'd learned that the limit is typically 4 people (700 lb maximum), but since most of us are pretty small we were well under that weight limit even as five people, so they allowed it (and I lived to write this review so, all good). After signing my life away and a very quick motor tutorial by a kid who looked like he couldn't be older than middle school, we were on our way. The motor on this boat took a little getting used to, but once I got the hang of it I was a pretty good captain (I'd like to think). We put down the anchor and got out to explore Bird and Gull Islands, then headed over to another beach with a hill to climb up and get a bird's eye view of the area. Before we knew it, it was time to head back to the harbor, but we kept the party going with some drinks and food (will review that separately). Jay (who I think is the owner or manager?) told us we were only allowed to rent a boat if we took a picture and it turns out he was serious (see the photo shoot results in my photos which turned out pretty cute). He took these on his phone so not sure what else he plans to do with them.

I've had two vastly different experiences with the food. The first time honestly, it was awful, but…read morethey were great about taking it off the bill. I probably wouldn't have come back if a friend had it been celebrating their birthday there. But this time the food was actually delicious. Granted I obviously got a different dish so maybe that pasta dish I got the first time just wasn't their best offering. But this time I got their sirloin steak, which was perfectly cooked. And we got a cheeseboard, which was also delicious. A few people in our party did say their food was lacking flavor. So I'm still gonna go with their food is inconsistent. But not as bad as I originally thought.

I've been friendly with Ranee and family for 24 years, long before she had this marina. During this…read moreperiod, if there are any traits I have seen, they include her generosity and work ethic. It went so far that for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary at the Fox Hollow Inn in Old Westbury, it was attended by Ranee. Herself coming from eastern Long Island, she did not have to do that. But having her there with my entire family (perhaps 100 people), including a couple that flew in from Grants Pass. It meant a lot. I'll never forget her being there for this. I like the marina, sequestered away in a quiet residential community. If you're looking for a secure marina for your vessel, this one should be considered.

Everyone had a great time from the youngest (5 yrs.) to grandma and grandpa. Keith was so accommodating to all the needs of our large group and everyone liked him so much. My husband and boys went fishing and caught a couple fluke. The boys were excited to catch a couple of crabs and robinfish as well.

Great bunch of guys running a boat on the South Shore of Long Island. We didn't go to any crazy spots, just a couple of popular spots with a few other boats looking for the same thing, Fluke! And boy or boy, my fish was an 8 pounder! $$ ;) The guys running the ship were nice. If you don't know how to bait a hook, they would have shown you but it you'll have to ask.
