Cruising America's Great Loop and other inland routes
View all threads...lazy loopers bringing up the rear!
Just wondering about anyone who has traveled the Atlantic ICW during July. What can we expect for temperatures? Bugs? Anything else? Recommendations?
Expect to skip the NJ ICW stretch as we are 4.5 draft with fresh epoxy on the keel.
Anyone else traveling at that time, let us know.

July is the time the GREEN HEADS come out in NJ. They are much worse than
the shallow ICW.
BTW, the NJ ICW is really only bad from Cape May to Ocean City. If you want
to keep moving and the ocean is rough, you can work your way north inside
all the way to Manasquan rather than sit and wait.

This is a BROAD topic. How about giving me a call at 336-270-6876, and let's discuss it verbally.
Good luck and good cruising!
