CODA New Jersey Atlantic Ocean crossing 2025 (10).



 CODA : Cape May to NYC

7 May 2025 

North Atlantic Ocean off of  New Jersey

Autopilot engaged off of Cape May.

Marc-  We have decided to do an overnight crossing of the New Jersey coast to take advantage of a weather window and arrive in time for high tide to enter the Sheepshead Bay Anchorage in Brooklyn, New York.  Departure was delayed until 10:30 this morning.  We needed to allow the stormy seas associated with the past several days of stormy weather.  Several boats went out and reported back 3 foot seas and a bright sunny day outside.  We were greeted by a pod of bottlenose dolphins as we exited the Cape May Inlet.
