Beautiful Morning To Cast Off The Lines

After hearing all the stories about the ICW we decided to wait on a good weather window and travel on the outside Atlantic Ocean.  Our patience paid off, it was a beautiful day on the Atlantic.

We left and it turned out to be a very foggy trip north to Manasquan Inlet.

We stayed at Hoffman Marina in Manasquan Inlet. We had requested a slip on the east side of the railroad bridge. They didn’t have one so they put us on a T-head right by the train. I have to say the train didn’t really bother me (Elaine) but they have a wicked current.  Passing boats are not able to maintain idle speed due to the swift current at the bridge so it’s a bumpy stay.

The Manasquan area is know for Tuna, Shark, & Marlin fishing. 

Our next stop, New York City!
