While you political hacks never suht your yaps, I had a last great sail
of the season.
We sailed up and down LIS, I did bump into one rock just south of
Islip. Did it on accident when I back winded the new sails and fell off
backwards, funny thing is my GPS said the shols were more than 12 feet
north of my position. I think it was an uncharted rock and sent a
message to the USCG to get it included in the local notice to mariners.

There are no rocks in the waters south of Islip.


Thats what I said fool. All the charts show no rocks, but I being a
superior sailor, venturing many miles discovered a new one, hence the
suggestion to the USCG for it's addition to be put in the L.N.M. . A
couch slouch will never discover a rock.


The Great South Bay is
south of Islip. The Long Island Sound is 15 miles north of Islip.


True Gilligan, you must know this area well.
We made it to The Great South Bay in just over 1 hr.
