Boating, Sailing, & Floating Devices

As much as a new one haha this would be a good incentive to get grandma her tritoon.
-no tracking

(My Google research ATM doesn’t have any restrictions)

vacationing on LBI this week
I want to bring the boat but don't want to pay a weekly slip.

Is it illegal to anchor it in a protected bay area for as long as I want? I'm just going to swim or paddle out to it.

Thinking about anchoring it east of Mordecai island.

Not sure about dropping the hook and leaving the boat there. As you've probably seen, most of the recommended anchorages are for live-a-board/through-sailing (so reaction to weather and boat traffic is immediate). We anchor off IBSP all the time, mostly for the day but on occasion I'll overnight in a bug net.

@one piece crank
good site! Mordecai is actually there...
I'm staying like two blocks from there so just thinking about it

@THATmanMANNY
A week at the Shore? Find a way to make that boat get there, even if it costs dock $$.

really not a big deal. It's a small and light boat and when I do anchor that anchor holds in 20mph winds

Manny.....if the wind shifts and the anchor is fouled with mud or seaweed it may not set again with the new wind direction.

thank you
trailer in/out is $20 per visit so I can do that too as we want to use it. Just hassle.
weekly slip is $400. Not paying $400 for my asshole brother in law to get on

Have him pay $400 💪

Then jump in and go, no launching and speedy docking if weather changes.

Or pay $400 and don't tell him - no trailer = no boat ?!

This is why you don't vacation with family.

I’ll watch the weather and make the call after we get bored of the beach/sand after a couple days.
Anyways here’s my ride or die crew on a weekday and my son is a super bum on phone behind daughter.

Not to mention tidal forces.

RIP Manny's boat

I'd be concerned about theft. After all, we are in NJ...

No boating this week :/ Only one good day on the beach this week so next two days are beach days
Paddled beyond the break Monday and paddled yesterday on the bay with the fam. It was peaceful 😴

So the boat got stolen/whisked out to sea by the tides?

@THATmanMANNY did you get out on the Beach or Bay last Saturday? THE best weather day of the year by far!

 

[THATmanMANNY]

@one piece crank dude!!! It was killing me as I was driving down here to the island that afternoon. So no!

this calm area was the spot I was considering. See sailboat has been anchored all week here

 

[pooriggy]

I've been in Barnegat Light all week. LBI is not the typical jersey shore, especially the north end of the island.

I went sailing out of the Harvey Cedars marina a few times. The Hobie Wave catamaran is a blast. Great sailer for LBI. Today was perfect.

I’ve done zero sailing I’ll have to take the recommendation of you and join a club that will make me get out and learn.

Funny thing, I ended up selling the sunfish and it’s supposed to be used as a table in some Martha Stewart reality show haha “table wars” I think it’s called. Flipped our kayaks within hours too. Still hot items! Kayaks don’t do it for me. A SUP is more versatile. Plan to upgrade my SUP.

am I supposed to get a boat reg renewal in the mail like my cars? I only got one for my trailer.

some pretty fabulous days recently. Today, Beach bound. Ride back was choppier.

Yes, boat registration renewal will come by mail, and renewable online.

What "beach" do you boat to?
