Saltwater boaters are invited to go online and map their boating routes this summer to help researchers better understand boating activity in the Northeast. The information will be used to document the importance of recreational boating in the region and to ensure that boating activities are considered in ocean planning. All route data provided will be private and confidential and will not be linked to any identifying personal information.
New Jersey boaters can access the online mapping tool at (
http://recreation.seaplan.org/to-participate) and participants are entered to win a $100 gift card donated by US Harbors, every time they complete the survey.
