From the center of the Verrazano Bridge we head on a course 216’Mag to Old Orchard Shoal Light.

I have created a way point X-1 (East of G"21" buoy and North of Hoffman Island) by the word "Borrow" on the charts as an interim fix point. This mark doesn’t really exist so don’t look for it.

From Old Orchard Shoal Light we head to R "14" on the Raritan Bay East Reach Channel.

From R "14" head for G"1" (Fl G 2.5sec) in Raritan Bay.

From G"1" we head for G"3" at the entrance to Keyport Harbor Channel. Then past G C"5" to R"8" to RN"12" which should be opposite the Keyport YC.

Keyport Yacht Club launch monitors channel 9

See the Keyport YC’s website, call up the nautical charts (Maptech MapServer) and note that by clicking on a point of interest (i.e. buoy etc) you will get the Lat/Long.
