OUCHY INLET: Barnegat Inlet mariners, take note. I got the following e-alert from the USCG. Throughout spring and summer, it appears there will beonly a single lane of boat traffic transiting the mouth of the inlet. OUCH! Remember, this is considered, by many, to be one of the busiest seasonal recreational boating inlets on the Eastern Seaboard. It also has a load of commercial vessels. This all has to do with the about-to-start project to strengthen and slightly reconfigure the North Jetty.

Here’s the communiqué: Hi Jay, I just wanted to let you know the final MSIB is still being finalized.
