do i have to winterise my outbord motor in my boat??
The first thing to do before buying a used boat is to have a certified marine surveyor go over the boat. A boat can possess many unforeseen problems for those unfamiliar and familiar with boats. Besides that they will give you a good appraisal, so you know your not getting a once over by the salesman. We have been boating in New Jersey for the past 25 years and love it!Does anyone know if there is a shuttle boat that will take you to?
To answer your question about slip fees, this generally tends to be based on the size of the boat. The marina where we are moored, for a 42' boat costs about $4000 a year. Add that plus insurance and maintenance it can be quite costly.

To travel from New York to Florida via a boat is a major undertaking unless your on a large self-sustaining ship. It invloves planning out the entire trip, covering for each stop, emergency stops, allowance of extra fuel incase of emergency, and many other things. Typically your not going to take a boat to Florida via ocean routes unless your an experienced mariner, and even then it can prove to be quite a challange. Not to mention expensive! With most larger boats only getting about 1 mile or less per gallon of fuel at plaining speeds. The fuel costs alone could total $4000+! Given there are many designs of fuel efficient boats, sails and trawlers are very efficient, expect them to travel slowly. If your planning on any large trips of that kind, expect to be looking at a boat in the 36' - 50'+ range.
How to winterize Mercury outboard ?
As for liscensing, in New Jersey a boaters liscense is only required if operating a boat in non-tidal water, or if operating a personal watercraft anywhere. However if your looking to become heavily involved with boating there are several coast guard courses out there that you should partake in. Everything from boating safety to navigation. And look to get your boat certified by the coast guard as well.
Hope this help!
Before you go out on any boat especially the ocean,I would suggest taking some Coast Guard classes to familiarize your self with ALL the aspects of boating.(There is a lot of things involved with boating).
How do I determine the proper boat anchor?
campmor is "ON DA MONEY" ! Take a Coast Guard "ABC" course, it's easy only a few hours, and you will know "What to do in an emergency" and how to handle it, very easy course, These guys are great, listen to them, their instructions have saved my life, and I was able to save a life too by listening to them, they are the pro's !beware of the people with nasty attitudes.
I've heard about jersey....
What is yoiur opinion of the Minnkota Engine Mount trolling motor?
What type of boat?What size boat? You need registration papers and title. You may be able to get documentation later depending on the size and where the boat was made. Definitely take a course, USPS POwer Squadron gives courses also. For the New York Harbor, Raritan Bay you need to know the rules. There is alot of traffic. There is alot of tide and currents to know about.Fog comes in suddenly.Atlantic Highlands is a nice marina and there are several others in the area.Registration should be in your state of residence, but some states require boats staying longer than 1 month to be registered there. We live in MD an NY, and have to keep the big boat MD registered.
On your travel plans, get some experience in the area first. Then there is the InterCoastal Waterway from NJ to FL.
We are on a sailboat, 6 knot max and it takes us 3 weeks to go 700 miles from Choptank River on the Chesapeake up through the C&D Canal, Deleware Bay, Atlantic around NJ to NYC up the Hudson, Erie Canal to Cayuga Lake, Ithaca. We stop for the nights. But we have delivered a boat from Annapolis to Glen Cove , Long Island in 40 hours straight. (sail boat)
