Jersey Shores

In the last couple of days we have covered the Jersey Shores and finished the ICW.  We had 65 more miles of ICW after Atlantic City.  Since then we have anchored out  and spent last night at Clark's Marina to prepare for going into the Atlantic for our jump from Manasquan Inlet to New York. As we finished the Jersey Shores we saw more and more of the destruction of Hurricane Sandy. Much has been done but there is still a lot to do. We traveled through another small canal called Point Pleasant and came out of the inlet at Manasquan to enter the Atlantic.  Today we made the leg of the Atlantic and we are now anchored in Sandy Hook with the view of New York in the distance. The oldest lighthouse of the United States is also here at Sandy Point which we can see in the distance.  Sandy Hook looks across the New York Harbor Inlet.  Good bye Jersey, hello New York.
