Cape May, NJ

Wednesday, September 21, 2016

The morning dawned calmer than yesterday so our decision was to travel outside along the coastline again. If it became too rough we would duck into Atlantic City and wait it out. The seas were calmer so we were doing great time with the current heading southward. We saw Atlantic City come.......and go as we made the decision to continue another 35 miles to Cape May.  This is a milestone along the route south because it is the tip of New Jersey. Next stop after this is up the Delaware River.
Decision made to keep going to Cape may

Hello......Good bye Atlantic City

























Arrival in Cape May was late afternoon in 20k gusting winds. We set the anchor in a crowded field of boats and no wind protection and spent about 2 hours checking on it and our position. After that we decided we were held tight and had dinner and a good nights sleep.
Rounding that last buoy into Cape May
felt really good
Our anchorage spot was right off the Coast Guard training center.
Beautiful sunset

Fishing boats leaving early!!
