In the store owner’s defense, Josh is a bit of a rabble-rouser. 

At our C&C Rendezvous lunch at the Mexican Restaurant, he had more than his 
fair share of nachos and I believe an extra chicken wing. 

Textbook anarchist. 

All the best, 

Edd

We tour the North Fork routinely for both biking and boating.  When we were at 
the Greenport Rendezvous last year, we had a great time touring the small 
maritime museum by the ferry dock, and then toured the NY Fireboat which is 
moored next to the ferry dock and is being refurbished by a bunch of former 
firefighters and others.  They showed us everything on board stem to stern.  
Both are free and both very enjoyable.  Greenport also has a chandlery/vintage 
yachting junk store a short walk away.  You could drive to Sag Harbor, count 
the Maserratti’s parked on the street, look at the huge motor and sail yachts 
on the docks, have lunch at Espresso (best sandwiches around) take the ferry to 
Shelter Island, drive across and take the ferry to Greenport, see the sights 
and reverse the ferry trips.  We do that trip by bike every year and always 
enjoy it.  Dave

Bayles Boat shop in Port Jeff is a community boat building shop well worth a 
visit. http://www.lisec.org/. Port Jeff itself is worth a visit for a boater.  
The Long Island Marine Museum in West Sayville is also worth a visit. 
https://www.limaritime.org/. And if you make it as far as Sag Harbor there is 
Whaling Museum and the town itself is an old Seaport with many yachts.  They 
have an active race fleet on Wednesday eves.  I am out in Montauk at the very 
end of the South Fork and the eastern most point in NY.  Probably too far for 
you to venture but worth a visit.   Jerry

Last year at the N.E. Rendezvous in Greenport, other guests suggested that
we explore/drive through shelter island and then hit Sag Harbor.  It
appeared to be a cool town though we didn't get to explore too long.  We
happened to be there for their Whaling days festival which was very
enjoyable.  You might want to look them up and see what's going on.

Dennis,

Personally, I don’t think any of the museums (maritime or other) are worth it 
on Long Island, but there are some cool places to go and visit. 

1. Port Jefferson (great shops and restaurants — all on the waterfront)
2. Greenport — It’s a little bit of a drive from mid-island, but the area is 
beautiful. Great town to walk through, wonderful seafood restaurants, and a 
ferry to Shelter Island)

Though I haven’t been there in some time, Northport is nice, as is Oyster Bay. 
On the South Shore is Jones Beach, the Hamptons and Montauk. 

If it’s a rainy day, set the Admiral loose in Roosevelt Field — a high-end 
shopping mall, complete with a Neeman Marcus (a/k/a "Needless Markup")

All the best,

Edd
