In 1969 my dad bought our 1st boat,a 17' Glasspar,we did all our fishing in the Long Island Sound. Seen some banner days of stripedbass and weakfish fishing.
As a family we did quite a bit of tent camping on L.I. and in upstate N.Y.
As you already know..., not a bad way to grow up.
'68 we got our first, an 18' wooden john boat, then a19' skiff, sold it for an aluminum 16 footer back then for substanance we targeted weakfish also, had some awesome days on the ICW still remember the day dad caught the 17# spec.
