A few of us are doing the NJ to OCMD trip July 20-22 and August 17-19 if anyone either is near OCMD and wants to join us or if anyone wants to make the long haul.
I hope you're going with others! It took us 8 hours on the way down due to insane seas the last 20 miles. On the way home to LBI we made it back in I believe it was 5 hours. 140 miles each way.
