boat damaged by bobbing pilings
be careful out there folks, just had my prop and maybe my rudder torn off a little bit past the mile marker out of the Manasquan this morning. hit the submerged crapola at about 25 mph, hit hard and the back of the boat just about cleared the water. after making sure I wasn't taking on water, and thank god I wasn't, I looked back at what seemed to be a full section of bulkhead or boardwalk. 2 pilings connected by 2 20 foot or so 2x10's. the pilings where only visable at the crest of a swell, besides that they where submerged. will be pulling the boat this afternoon to check for the full amount of damage.

Glad you are safe, were you able to report the location to the Coast Guard ?

Re: boat damaged by bobbing pilings
yeah they took my gps coordinates after they checked on my boats condition as far as taking on water. guess they where monitoring channel 16 that I call boat US on. never saw a boat come out till I was going in the inlet on the tow.
