I think you're right! I thought the rangers would shut it down last year but I think this will be bigger and better! Just in case anyone hasn't heard about it, Sat aug. 19th raccoon island inside sandy hook. I heard Mike got the white reggae band again! Check your chart and watch the tide there is a submerged rock wall 100 ft or so off the inside of sandy hook running northeast to racoon isl. I found it last year after panther left .

NOAA charts show it as Spermaceti Cove and reference the island as marshland. They show it as a peninsula not an island.

Hunster keep your finger off the lens and maybe we'll see the picrure instead of a finger print.

Probably around noon or a little after for me, I believe we're spending the night.


For those who don't know where the island is, below is a map and the approach to the island.

2 more weeks and I should be ready, just waiting for the motor now......and some little odds and ends I need to finish like the interior. But I'd sit on a milk crate to take it for a ride
