Very nice boat. Nice children also.
My first word is life jackets.
The Town of Rumson has a ramp that is a yearly fee, when I used it I think the cost was $80.
The channel out of there was very shallow at moon tide you would have a problem getting to the ramp.
I don't know if it was dredged, It "was on the list".
The Navesink river is a great place to fish, crab, or hang out.
There are Flounder Summer and Winter, Blue Fish, Stripers, Weakfish, Planety to keep you happy.
Several places to pull up on a beach and have a BBQ or what ever.
You can spend most of your time around the Oceanic Bridge, No Wake area.
That does not mean everyone knows that.
I fished that river for many years and caught many fish and crabs.
It is one if not the cleanest rivers in New Jersey.

As for bilge pumps I had two, one on a float/manual and one for Manual only.

DON'T FORGET TO PUT THE PLUG IN THE BACK. I think everyone has forgotten that once.
Go to a parking lot when it is not busy and learn to back up.

Good luck, Be safe,
