Barnegat Bay Cruising
WoW, didn't know there were so many Barnegat Bay sailors on the site. The trip from Forked River to Morrison's takes about four hours. You can sail down to the bottom of the bay to ICW Marker 42 and then motor the rest of the way. It is about an hour to ICW 42, then about an hour to the Route 72 bridge, then a little less than 2 hours to Beach Haven and Morrison's. Morrrison's only has two transient slips available on their T dock so call early. Shelter Harbor Marina (609-492-8645) is just north of Morrison's with some transient slips available for about $125 per night. It's a nice place with a pool but the approach off the ICW is shallow at anything but high tide. Toms River also has some nice sheltered places to anchor and you can dock & dine at the Lobster Shanty.
