Thanks Dug, that's a bit far. She asked me if I knew anybody so I figured I'd check with you guys first.

They're closing the fishery for a month?

Sounds like a serious effort to help the lobsters rebound.....

Pete,
I own a marina where several lobstermen once docked. The loss of the indusrty has forced all of them to find other means. I am located on the Mianus River in Cos Cob CT. about 75 minute drive north from Babylon. I could put your wife in touch with a couple of the guys that are still in the area. Let me know. Either PM or office number 2zero3-66one-40three3.

Rick,
When posting a phone number on a public viewed web site that's open to bots, its best to either all or partially spell out the numbers. Easy for a bot to pickup the numerical number sequence and then the spam calls start.

Bruce - Thanks for the heads up. I used my main office number for that reason. No matter what I do the office gets 15 calls a day from solicitors.

Pete - I had not visited the site since last week. If i can help let me know. My facility is 30 miles east of the city. Easy to get to, just off I95.
