Licence to launch in the bay?

[PA Angler Matt]

I am from PA...i have my PA boating licence. I was wondering, is that all i need to launch my boat at like keyport, or leonardo to fish the bay? I only have a 15' aluminum with a 15HP motor, so bay is pushing it. I def wont be heading to the ocean. Do i need a NJ boating licence to launch in NJ?

also, you seasoned guys, my boat setup i mentioned, will I be ok in the bay on a calmer day?

New to boating, just want to get the boat down for fluke, but I dont know the bay at all, just from taking charter boats, i know near the keansburg pier there is a good spot, ill just have to find it.
