It would be great to be able to come out for another weekend and to use our house as long as possible.

With warmer weather continuing into November, and the number of people that use there homes later into the season,, the schedule needs to b revised. I own my home my accessibility should not be defined by Sayville Ferry.
Th y are also forcing an early closure for commercial businesses which again impacts homeowners.

Please consider and implement the suggested changes. Among other things, this early schedule change has resulted in the planned closing of all retail businesses more than one full week earlier than in prior years (Sun Oct 22 instead of Sun Oct 30 or Mon Oct 31). Losing one full weekend is significant for small businesses like Erin's Flower Shop, Tola, The General Store, The Pantry and The Liquor Shop. For all but Tola, these are seasonal businesses that rely on their income thru the end of October to sustain them until the Season resumes the following year. Tola is new, with a year-round location in Bellport, and we want her to return. We all know, it's not easy or inexpensive to run a business in The Pines.

And summer schedule should not be every 2 hours on weekends
And Pea Pod belongs on the freight boat not the ferry. Very dissatisfied with your service of recent years. You were great in the 70s now not so much!

The late fall schedule starting September 26 is an absolute joke!! We NEED more accessibility to our homes until the end of October at least!! If the fall schedule stayed in place of the late fall schedule it would be THE VERY LEAST you can do. Please consider.

As a homeowner, and someone who has winterized my home. This does not make me happy, with a growing almost year round ferry commute.

People want not need. Noone needs this. Stand up for a deserving cause.

People work until 6pm and with traffic no one can get there for the last ferry , and if you do it is extremely crowed and it present a safety and liability issue on the ferry for everyone . Later boat should be available at least on Friday and sundays .

We want not need. Sign an actually petition that needs attention to its cause. Not blog about complaints, so snobby over there.

Nope the Pines is dying. Obviously if people were going they would run more ferries to make more profits. They plan on cutting the summer schedule by two weeks early next summer as it is. #moving on #ptown #miami #mykonos
