Arrived at City Island at 3:00 PM, picked up a six pack of Corona and stopped at Jimmy`s Reef for some lunch. While sitting on the terrace I had a panoramic view of the Sound, from the Throgs Neck to Matinicock P

I was perfectly rained in yesterday at the dock (could not work on my mast projects) and so I turned on all of the electronics.
I noticed that the presets on my Furuno 1720 radar didn`t produce any visiable blips on the CRT dipslay. I truthfully started retuning the various controls and finally managed to get some images of high return marina structures on shore using the 1/4 and 1/2 mile
