Rum Point / Ocean Sailing / videos


This private anchorage location that I cannot tell you about in Atlantic City is really great. Its an easy in with 7-8' at low tides, but your charts will tell you that you are in the marsh and on land. Perfect....keep out! Then once inside the basin, you can anchor up lots of boats. The only issue is that he entire cove is private property with private docks with no dinghy landing area. So, you simply make the crossing back out and over to the CASINOS where you can tie up and have fun.

Heading out in the AM, we set sail for Sandy Hook under reef main and a full 135% jenny close hauled in calm seas with a simple 3' swell. Once under sail, right at the jetty, it was time for breakfast, and I love eggs, so it was STEAK n EGG time! Check out this cool video of making eggs on a slight heal. Lucky for me it was galley down, so it was a snap.

Then here is another video from our nice sail down the Delaware Bay. These Island Packets really sail well in 20-30 knots ad they have a nice motion.
