The location certainly looks perfect....I looked it up on google earth and there looks to be a marina on the south side of cedar creek....pretty close to the campground....'ll give a call tomorrow and see what kind of availability they have and see what kind of space for trailered boats they have.....I'm definitely into camping and not having to make that drive back on Saturday night.
I dont know the area really so lets see if Lumber or anyone has any suggestions too

I used to work at a marina over there called ocean beach marina. Its right on cedar creek. they have a ramp and plenty of slips. try calling them. I think the number is 609-693-2347. ask for Kyle and tell him Pete told you to call him. Maybe it will help.

Called the folks at Cedar Creek....friendly enough for whatever thats worth....they have availability for cabins, trailers and "a few" tent sites....says its a pretty busy weekend scheduled so dont wait to long to reserve... In grand NJ fashion they seem to have a charge for everything under the sun such as additional cost per person over 2, boat trailer parking, day visitors fee, but hey what do you expect from a state that charges you to get onto most of its beaches.
Like I said I'm in to camping and sounds like CB and MJ might be too so I guess lets see if anyone else chimes in with any better ideas or places over the next day or two.
Sounds to me like the party is at where ever our "founding father(s)" go.

well I like camping but I have a 30 foot camper!
They get a ton of cash for trailer rentals!
I think what we are looking for is a day spot were we can all meet take off do what we want and return to after to cook out and get to know each other.
Hotel room will be much cheaper then $175+ for a trailer rental for one night.
So maybe meet at ceder as day guest and use there picnic area to meet and eat. Get a hotel room for over night people, the few that can meet for breakfast and then be on are way the next day.

Wont have any problem spotting that!....nice looking boat. I love V's with colored hulls. When I was buying mine I found one with a dark blue gelcoat hull....It would have been absolutely beautiful....(unfortantely everything else was crap)
How long were you stuck there on the beach, you look a little high and dry right there!

it wasn't too bad. I pushed it off in about ten minutes. we were hanging out on the sandbar for a while. by the time we decided to leave it was sitting like that. it was at a good angle to get a couple pics though. it looks a lot better in the pics than in real life. over this winter i'm probably hit it with some wet sanding and compound.

All right, just got back and spotted this, so you guys are hooking up on the 15th of August right?
Going to have to figure this one out, my boat is on a rack way north of there, to far for a run. And my trailer is buried in a yard full of trailers around it at the marina.
Yea going to have to be some figuring here.
CB and Wind Talker what are you guys doing? have you firmed up a spot yet.
Has anyone got a price for a camper at that camp ground yet? I got one I can sleep three guys in and can tow down there in an hour or two.

$48.50 per night for water and electric only...no sewer....up two 2 people, extra $10 per person on top of that.
I'm pretty sure me and the family will be doing the tent thing there. (I've never camped in anthing but a tent so I dont know how much tents suck just yet)

Havent had any activity on this thread in a little while but I am guessing the plan is still to meet at Tice's Shoal in Barnegat Bay on Saturday the 15th. My familay and I will be camping at the Cedar Creek campground and plan on being on the water down there late morning if all goes well.
Haven't heard from anyone other than whats on this thread so I gues I will head out there and look for some V-20's!
I guess we will just play the rest of it by ear. Look forward to meeting anyone who makes it!! I'm planning on having a big time even if I find myself there alone. Anybody else who shows up will be a bonus!(RB437, MJ or CB if you are down there and looking for a ride I'd be glad to hook up with you. My cell phone is 908-246-5660 or you can shoot me a PM)

Have no time to get trailer out of storage and boat loaded off of rack. Hope you guys enjoy yourself

Ain't looking good for me and MJ either. MJ's bride is in the hospital and I have family staying with us through the weekend.

Sorry to hear about your folks, Willy...hope the tests come back in your mom's favor and your brother is feeling better soon...
I'll be out there with the wife and kids pretty early. If you've never been to Tice's its very crowded on the weekend and people will anchor right on top of you. We usually anchor on the Northern end where its not quite as crowded. Hopefully we will see you all there. My boats named tranquility.
