The Fred Golofaro Memorial Montauk Surf Fishing Classic returns to Montauk Point State Park this weekend.

Carolyn Tyson, former owner of an estate off Further Lane, left eight acres, part of the Double Dunes, to the Nature Conservancy, helping to preserve the landscape for coming generations.

It was only 15 minutes from the time Kent Feuerring took off from East Hampton Town Airport in his Seamax M-22 on the pristine morning of Oct. 6, 2022, until the right wing separated from the plane, causing him to crash in Three Mile Harbor. It took nearly two years for the National Transportation Safety Board to release its final report on the fatal accident, which they did last week, blaming the manufacturer for using a nut that couldn’t handle the job it was given.
