NY & NJ to Florida Yacht Delivery Route
A southbound yacht delivery from New York or New Jersey to Florida can be run offshore, through protected Intracoastal waterways (ICW), or with a combination of both. The route is planned around the individual vessel, including cruising speed, fuel range, draft, air draft, weather tolerance and destination. Departures may begin from New York Harbor, Long Island, Sandy Hook, Barnegat Bay, Manasquan, Atlantic City or Cape May before continuing south along the Atlantic Coast.
Depending on conditions, a NY/NJ to Florida delivery may continue offshore past Ocean City, Maryland and Virginia Beach, enter protected waters through Rudee Inlet at Virginia Beach, Hampton Roads/Norfolk, or Oregon Inlet, or transition into the ICW through the Carolinas and Georgia. Common waterways and destinations can include Pamlico Sound, the Neuse River, Beaufort, Masonboro Inlet, Wrightsville Beach, the Cape Fear River, Southport, Georgetown, Charleston, Brunswick, St. Augustine, Cape Canaveral, Fort Pierce, West Palm Beach and South Florida.
