5/17/2024 we were underway promptly at 6am for Joey Lynch’s annual fishing extravaganza aboard the Nancy Ann. As usual, Joey picked a great day and everybody went home with fish. It started off a little slow fishing for porgies east of gardeners Island, but that changed when we caught the outgoing tide, east of Oregon Point Lighthouse where we limited out on strip bass between 28 inches and 31 inches. We finished up the day with jumbo porgys in Southold Bay

5/14/2024 I’ve been meaning for sometime to put these decals on my boat, just got around to it today. Joining the United States Coast Guard was the best thing I ever did. It set me up for everything else I accomplished in my life. Not only did I get to see some interesting places, but I had the pleasure of working with some of the greatest men. I served aboard two ocean going bouy tenders out of Sitka Alaska, attended Boatswains Mate Class A School in Yorktown Virginia and finished up running boats out of Ft Totten in Queens New York. Although it felt like I was doing prison time, at times, it was an incredible journey. Hope you enjoyed the video

5/2/2024 Well it’s been a long slug, trying to get my garage completed and coming to the end. Special thank you to my good friend Dion Esposito/FDNY Bronx Engine Co 89 for assisting me with construction of my workbench and shelves. Also a shout out to the United States Coast Guard/Semper Paratus. When not serving Aids to Navigation aboard the 180’ Ocean Going Bouy Tender USCGC Clover WLB-292 ☘️aka “The Can Do Canoe” homeported in Sitka Alaska, we might be found with a paint brush in our hand. There was a saying in the Coast Guard, “If it doesn’t move paint it; if it does move paint it anyway!” Hope you enjoyed the video

12/26/2023 We spent the day at Patriots Point Charleston SC to visit the USS Yorktown CV-10 and USS Laffey DD-724 aka “The Ship That Would Not Die”. While on the hanger deck of the Yorktown, I was able to get up close to a TBF/TBM “Avenger” World War II Torpedo Bomber. My father Thomas J May served aboard the USS Tarawa CV-40 during WWII as an Aviation Machinist Mate attached to an “Avenger” Squadron. He was reactivated for the Korean War and served as a swimming instructor at Jacksonville Naval Air Station till the end of the war. Great Job Dad!!

12/02/2023 The Mary Alice’s final Blackfishing trip of the season brought us 6 miles south of Block Island. The Head Chef and Captain did not disappoint the crew. We started off landing jumbo Seabass and wondered if Blackfish were in the cards for us. Captain Pete dropped back on the anchor about 20 feet and large Blackfish started coming over the rails. Largest being 11.20lbs. The runner up was 10.50lbs and the 16 others were all 6,7 and 9 lb fish. As a bonus we wound up with 3 Codfish. Captain Pete switched into chef mode and waffles were served, complete with butter, syrup and sausage links. Around 12 o’clock, the fresh kielbasa complete with sauerkraut and mustard made the Polish theme debut. About 1 PM, we hightailed it out of there, as winds were picking up and seas were building. We made a two hour trip west back to Montauk where the Mary Alice earned her stripes again! Another great trip aboard the Mary Alice. Thanks for viewing
