Locale

Centered around the Hamptons, this chart details the beauty of the Atlantic estuary known as Long Island Sound. Its tidal marshes are some of the most pro ductive in the world, producing three to seven tons per acre per year of vegetation, largely in the form of salt marsh grasses. When this grass is flushed out into the sound, it directly contributes to the great finfish and shellfish production the area has become known for.

Points of Interest: Montauk, Hither Hills State Park, Hampton Bays, Amagansett, East Hampton, Hither Woods, Southold, and Shelter Island.

About

Wood Charts are based on soundings and measurements from bathymetric and nautical charts. Each depth layer is laser-cut from sheets of Baltic birch and glued together "bread and butter" style to create the contours and shorelines of striking waterways. Select layers are hand-stained a rich blue-green color to discern water from land, and major byways are etched into the land. The whole work is framed in a custom, solid wood frame and protected with a sheet of durable, ultra-transparent acrylic.
