I have just posted a flotilla plan idea into the EVENTS list for summer 2014. Let's sail from Rock Hall, MD to Block Island RI and get a fleet of IPs to travel together. Please add yourself to the event if you are interested in exploring this flotilla. Add here
ipyoa.com/community/events/viewevent/42-...leet-to-block-island

We will departure from Rock Hall, MD late June 2014 and the legs will look like this:
1. Rock Hall MD to CD Canal Engineer Cove
2. CD Canal to Cape May NJ
3. Cape May NJ to Atlantic City NJ
4. Atlantic City NJ to Sandy Hook
5. Sandy Hook to Long Island Sound, Port Washington
6. Port Washington to Duck Island
7. Duck Island to Watch Hill, RI
8. Watch Hill RI to Block Island, RI

Optional route could be direct from Atlantic City NJ to Block Island RI. This is a 200 mile leg.

The above 1-8 legs allow for day trips and places to anchor every night or take a dock at each location. We usually anchor at these places.

Today is October 30, 2013, and we know we are sailing to Block Island next summer, so why not begin now and plan for a flotilla of Island Packet Yachts?

Look HOW FUN...

I might be interested depending the time frame. I race a marshall sanderling in the summer on the barengat bay. That pretty well uses up all the weekends. Yes I am still working. Just a thought you could come in barnagat inlet stay over in tices shoal then work you way up to manasquan inlet then up to sanday hook. The lower bay has 10ft of water easy but after the mattas bridge it get 4-6 ft unless you stay in the ICW. there are plenty of place to go into and hide for a day.
Please let me know when you were going to do this. Maybe we can meet up.

We most likely will go into Atlantic City and then from there, make the total run to Sandy Hook which can be run in almost all daylight hours during the summer. I will look at your locations, and maybe we can connect.
Thanks for the info. I must say, I do not know the NJ coast other than Cape May, Atlantic City and Sandy Hook.

There is a place at Barnegat Light that you can stay in. I don't remember the spot. Dave might be able to give you the exact location.

Hayden: Since our homeport is in New London, CT, we will enjoy meeting the participants in Block Island during your stay. As the plan solidifies, please give report as to the dates that you will stay at Block. Good luck with your plans.
