Atlantic City to Cocktail Cove off Barnegat Bay, New Jersey

 We enjoyed lunch anchored up from Atlantic City waiting for the tide and current to switch before heading on to Barnegat Bay. It was a pleasant day with all sorts of sights on the water. We changed our initial plan to anchor at Seaside near the ocean and boardwalk when we spotted Cocktail Cove up Tom's River near the Ocean Gate Yacht  Club. We anchored next to one sailboat and out from the yacht club mooring balls near a beach and abandoned park. It was a beautiful sunset as we arrived near 7:30 pm but well worth the distance to find a sheltered cove.

Not sure if these are clam beds

Looks like old Coast Guard Station that has been privatized

Hastings to Mile 88.7, Lock 19 Scotts Mill, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

 We woke up again around 6 am and made coffee and pulled away from the Hastings city wall and headed towards the narrow railroad bridge open...
