March has arrived, and with it comes longer daylight and the feeling that boating season is just around the corner.

We’ve been busy at White Water Marine getting boats ready for the upcoming season, and customers have been stopping in to check out the latest Sportsman and Yellowfin models hitting the floor. These boats are designed for the kind of versatility Long Island anglers need — family cruising one day, offshore fishing the next.

Local reports are already hinting at early activity in some of the rivers and harbors. Before long, the back bays will start producing and the entire Island will come alive again with boats heading out at sunrise.

If you’re thinking about getting into a new boat this year, now is the perfect time to beat the spring rush.
