Navigational Hazard unmarked Shark River Inlet

[dfish28]

Is that a spot burn??

[Sea Run Hunter]

Yeah. Drift over at low tide. Guaranteed to catch your boat for a few hours. While you are hung-up, you can catch all the seaweed you need for sushi. Don't tell anyone that is the secret seaweed spot.

The channel markers were relocated and now split the old wooden piling marker.

I've seen the small green buoys stuck in the mud along the channel just past the Belmar bulkhead as you head toward the back behind the condos. At low tide we always had to raise the engines. The red side was worse.

Thanks Capt!

That entire river is now an accident waiting to happen. I have been running out of Shark River since the early 60's, and this is by far the worst I have ever seen it.

Outside the main channel in the river it is now a bar on the Avon side, and shoaling on the Belmar side. Be careful everyone.

I think it's time to petition coast guard to find out why it hasn't been dredged. Millions of dollars of boats there
