MarineMax Huntington is hosting cocktails and conversation out in Montauk—presumably they're bringing boats out east for the day. Details are thin (that 12:30 AM start time seems wrong), but it's free and it's Montauk, so worth a call to their Huntington location at 155 West Shore Road to confirm timing.
