Next month I'm bringing a trawler with a 4' draft up the coast of New
Jersey. I've read some information stating that most avoid the ICW and
run the outside. I'm wondering what the best way to go and why people do
this, the draft, bad scenery, hassles with the markings?

How about that section betweewn Little Egg Inlet and Manasquan Inlet;
that looks pretty easy....

And what would be some good anchorages or marinas along there?

At four feet, you should not have a poroblem. The only fixed bridge is
south of Atlantic City. We have traversed it from Manasquam to Atlantic
City with a sailboat and five foot draft. Never had a problem with bridge
openings. Find a copy of Reed's Alamanac and download the Coast Pilot.
