Great Loop Route # 237: Cape May, New Jersey to Staten Island, New York | What Yacht To Do

Welcome to What Yacht To Do, a Great Loop Documentary. Today, (August 21, 2022) Rev and Sam are moving on their Great Loop Route from Utsch's Marina in Cape May, New Jersey to Great Kills, Yacht Club in Staten Island, New York.
We are cruising around America's Great Loop for a second time and selected a 1999 Carver 504 named the Here's To Us!! as our Great Loop boat. So much goes into Great Loop planning and we share every trip with you. Welcome aboard!
Here are a few resources that we used for the trip: www.whatyachttodo.com/resources/
And our Great Loop courses here: greatloopacademy.com/great-lo...
We started the Great Loop on May 15, 2019 and completed our Gold Loop journey on August 30, 2020. You can see our entire trip here: www.whatyachttodo.com/our-gre...
We started our second loop on September 2, 2020 and you can follow our route here: www.whatyachttodo.com/our-gre...

    I enjoy seeing Fellow Michiganders creating this content. It really contributes to my retirement decision of life on the drink.

    What a smooth trip up the coast. Great to see you guys out loving the water again. We had a quick change of weather just North of Georgetown, SC on the ICW. We were in blue skies just cruising along while all the sudden a giant wall of dark clouds, that had been hidden from view by the trees along the west bank, came over head and we went from sunshine to almost darkness within seconds of seeing them. Then the rain came down so hard, we could not see the trees on shore only 50 feet away. We were in a 24' Keywest with no radar to see what may be coming out of the white wall of rain all around us. This lasted 30 minutes or more then it left us in blue skies and sunshine. When boating, you have to take the good with the bad. Luckily the good has always been worth going through the bad. We are looking forward to seeing you guys at the Statue of Liberty. Be well and calm sea wishes for you two.

    Yes, it can happen quickly! I try to look at trends and read the surface analysis charts. And merge that with the various apps and get a feel for it. Can't always get it right, but neither do the Weathermen 😅

    I think you made a mistake on the Title. Says Chesapeake to Cape May. Should probably be Cape May to Great Kills.
