Hi:
I am expecting to pick up a 410DA at the Marine Max in Lindenhurst this Friday. A MM employee will be on board, but I like to have my own plan in order.
Looking on the maps, it looks like I would have a choice of Fire Island or Jones Beach Inlets. Jones Beach seems like less distance, but may not be less time or less hazardous. Once out of the inlet, the plan is to cut accross the Atlantic into Barnegat Inlet and then inside for a short run in the MM Brant Beach location.
I am very familiar with the Barnegat inlet and the ICW in this area.
My question is....Which Inlet would be best to head out of from the Great Bay in LI. Also, any local knowledge on low water, shoaling, day markers, etc..
thanks,
