Re: Northern NJ spots
So that sounds like 30 minutes to me...
you guys wanna race me and my duct tape motor! LOL
I'm sure you guys chilled and enjoyed that ride, plus the 5mph river rides take time too.

Long Island Sound offers a tremendous amount of boating destinations and watering holes.

Re: Northern NJ spots
I went to Wind & Sea last night by boat, no problem getting there but the way home via the shrewsbury It was so dark out, couldn't see anything no moon, lots of fog etc... scary place to be under those conditions. Would never have made it back without a GPS. I will try to avoid that area in the future unless it's a clear night.
How did they do it years ago without modern technology.
