Big water - Small boats

[Flygaff]

I am looking for other small boats to team up for offshore runs. I have a 25 center with twins and most of the bells & Whistles. I am looking for other like minded Boaters that want to venture to the Chicken and beyond. I am in Monmouth Cove. The Hudson is in my plans for this season. I have been going out to the Chicken for years. Another option is My boat one trip, yours on others.


SAFETY IN NUMBERS

I would be more concerned about an adequate fuel reserve (+ Floscan to monitor same) and the appropriate safety gear (EPIRB & raft) than a buddy boat to help you stretch your proverbial legs from the Chicken to the Hudson. Pick a great weather day and go!

I hold 200 Gallons of fuel and have two 30 gallon Tempo tanks I strap on deck for the ride out. I do have the flo scan, epirb, life raft and sat phone.

I like to get out a few times a year. The Glory Hole is my limit but keep me in the loop please.

I'm in... not a small boat but always looking to network. I was at the Chicken yesterday and will be hitting up the Hudson this year for sure. We run out of Manasquan inlet.

My boat too small , old to venture that far, but I'm curious on what's biting and how you guys do.

I run all the time. I got a 26 cc and we have run 125 out of Manasquan this yr. As long as you have all the equipment and pick your days your good. Pm me your number and we’ll talk. Biggest thing about it is knowing your boat and being safe. We always buddy boat as your far away from home.
