About Townsend's Marina, Forked River

Townsend's Marina, Forked River is a public boat ramp in Ocean County, New Jersey, on Forked River. From here SeaStatus scores 7 waters: Oyster Creek, Middle Branch Forked River, North Branch Forked River, South Branch Forked River, Barnegat Bay, Forked River, and 1 more.

The main water here is Coastal waters from Manasquan Inlet to Little Egg Inlet NJ out 20 NM (Area 6 of 10). Nearshore water is scored mostly on wind and wave height, with wave steepness and the tidal current counting too. A current running against the wind is treated as worse than either one alone.
