Default Re: Barnegat Inlet 22' Boat

Iv'e been boating out of BI for 20 years. Had 20CC and now run a 22CC. You will be fine. If its a washing machine just keep your bow into the swells hand on the throttle and TAKE YOUR TIME! It's never a race getting out of the inlet.
If its snotty coming in, enter from the north side around the tower. Watch the rollers coming in and power up behind a wave and maintain speed BEHIND the wave. DONT think you can surf a boat in, you will run the risk of listing and shit will go very bad very quick! It sounds scarier than it actually is but after some experience it's a piece of cake.

You will know it's the wrong time to run the inlet when you are at the back by the light house and it looks like the banzai pipeline rolling across the mouth.
