The U.S. Coast Guard station at Eatons Neck in Northport, NY, is a vital military base responsible for overseeing the central portion of Long Island Sound. Home to dedicated military personnel, the station provides assistance to local boaters and operates 24/7 with a variety of equipment including utility and rescue boats.
