What are you looking to do? Fish? Target species?
It's approx 7 N mile from the tip of Sandy Hook to the start/top of the Sandy Hook Reef.
A bit over 8 N Miles to the Rockaway reef.
Word is there is no action on the Rockaway reef right now.

Thanks Robyns Nest. Yes - I was looking to target Sea Bass and Fluke.
And yes I have a chart - it is on my boat - an hours drive from my house. I just figured there would be at least one, non sarcastic fellow NJ boater who was knowledgeable and could give me an answer.

I'm here for ya Master!!! LOL.
Stay away from NY if you want Fluke.
20.5" at 4 fish for NY vs. 18" at 8 fish for NJ.
No brainer for me to always fish NJ for Fluke. Not worth the risk of a boarding and big fine.
Sea Bass are on the small size right now too, I think the pressure on the Sea Bass has greatly increased due to the crappy fluke regs. Catch 15 keep 1 kinda stuff going on right now. Might have to go to deeper water to get the keeper Sea Bass right now.
I hope it picks up in the next 2 weeks when I'm back fishing NJ waters for the rest of the summer.

Here's a few sites you can use for online charts so you don't have to run to the boat.
Great resource.
