thanks for the info.. sounds interesting. How far is it all the
way to Cape May once a boat enters the Delaware River?


In actuality you are entering upper Delaware Bay at that point, and it
is one of the least interesting places I have ever been for the most
part, although Cape May, NJ has its attractions. Delaware Bay is
notorious for its shallow water, steep chop, heavy commercial traffic,
submerged obstructions and lack of cruising harbors. Other than that,
it is a great place.
