Turkey Swamp Park

 
 

  1. Turkey Swamp Park - Freehold [Details] (40.19577, -74.30435)

This is a rather small lake with a long shoreline and even a couple of islands. Would probably make an interesting afternoon.

Shadow Lake - Middletown

 
 

  1. Navesink River - Red Bank [Details] (40.35212, -74.06980)
  2. Shadow Lake - Middletown [Details] (40.34648, -74.10520)

  4. Swimming River - Red Bank [Details] (40.33838, -74.08815)

This small lake is about a mile long. The only public launch is at the west end in Stevenson Park, off West Front Street. There is a channel from there to the lake, but good luck finding it - be prepared to run aground. Fortunately, the bottom is firm sand, and a short tow on foot will get you out to deeper water. It is also possible to go a short ways up the creek.

This site varies, depending on when you go there. During the summer, and especially on weekends, there can be a lot of motorboats around. Other times, you can have the whole place to yourself.

Handles

Real side handles make necessary tie-down points for transport, and are well worth the cost of adding them if your boat doesn't have them. This is a good model that uses two screws at each end to secure it. Even better, if you can reach inside the hull, use bolts and washers instead of screws. Kayak plastic is pretty thick though, and the screws have not been a problem.
