Cape May, New Jersey

An easy run and an exercise for me.  On our way to Cape May, about two thirds down Delaware Bay we saw storm activity which I was able to track on the radar to determine we were going to get wet.  When being wetted we had quite poor visibility but the radar, combined with GPS and AIS returns made navigation easy.  Very reassuring for those days when mist keeps folks from getting to Endymion Island mooring cans!

We are at Utsch's Marina at the end of the Cape May Canal.
 

We are back on the Intracoastal for it's last stretch up into New Jersey.  It ends before New York so there is a mandatory leg into the Atlantic. Utsch's is well equipped except for internet.  Thank God I bought an account with Verizon!  Looks like we have a grocery store in easy reach so we must stock up here as there is not much else en route we are told.

We have to figure out where to hole up until the canals open up.  I will make some calls tomorrow and see whether the Hudson River is an option or not.  All those waiting boats are waiting somewhere.


In the meantime, an early glass of wine is going down very nicely thank you!


Thanks to all for the supportive comments.  We read them all and very much enjoy the knowledge that folks are following our trials, tribulations and experiences.
