Hi, there is a bunch of us on Barnegat bay.  I am north of the Seaside bridge, in Brick.  Bob is south, down near Waretown.  There is a good public launch down there.  Forked River has Southard?s Marina, I have used that ramp and watched several other Compact launch there.

In my opinion, fall is the best time of year, as wind is less variable than spring, and boat traffic and wakes are less.

Let us know when you are heading our way.

South of The Seaside bridge has more room to sail.  North of the bridge, stay close to west shore.
