+lostinjersey Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 I am toying with the idea of creating a virtual cache (it would easily comply with the new regulations) but with a unique twist: the cache is located between 1-12 miles off the coastline in the ocean. There are several I could utilize but I'm not sure which i would have a better shot at using. I won't say any more about what it is, but here's the question: would you seek this cache? Please assume that the cache is located within a reasonable distance, (not like you're in Boston & this cache is located off of Maryland or something) PS If by some stupid chance any of you are able to figure out what the subject matter here is: DONT SAY ANYTHING! www.gpswnj.com Quote Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Isn't this technically still a New Jersey cache, even though it is offshore? If so, you need a poll response for "I'd just fake a find." I have some ideas about what you're thinking about for the subject of the cache. Go for it! x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x Some mornings, it just doesn't pay to chew through the leather straps. - Emo Phillips Quote Link to comment

And I would likely also require a picture of the gps in front of this "spot" quote:I have some ideas about what you're thinking about for the subject of the cache.

+briansnat Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 Seems like a great idea. I don't have a boat, but if another local cacher does, I'd probably try to bum a ride. Unless the boat is a yacht, I don't think I'd want to go more than 2-3 miles out though.

+Polgara Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 GO for it!! I love the ocean, been fishng for years, I have a 19' grady white, I'd go!!! Except my boat is in MD, so I won't be finding your cache, I think many people would feel more comfortable in a 25-30 ft boat though especially if they are not used to the sea and they lose sight of land, and that would be an expensive ride. But I'd still try it anyway! "The more I study nature, the more I am amazed at the Creator." - Louis Pasteur Quote Link to comment
+retphoto Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 what is so interesting that is 12 miles out??? But if it's near a Bouy you can place a Physical in a ammo can attached to the bouy...now that might be interesting. Of course you can do this.... Attach ammo can to 55 gallon drum filled with cement. Use a cable that is Depth Minus 50 feet so it doesn't get tangled in any passign ship props and push it over the side...mark it a 5/5 Scuba gear required LOL.... Give me a Tall ship, and a Star to steer her bye... The White Fleet.... Quote Link to comment
+Skully & Mulder et al. Posted May 3, 2003 Share Posted May 3, 2003 I didn't vote because I'm really not doing any more virtual caches. Having said that, if I were you, I would put the cache out there. The great thing about caching is that there is such a verity of caches to suit everyone's desire. I'm sure that plenty of people would be intrigued by this one and go ahead & seek it. Quote Link to comment

Attaching ANYTHING (including tying your boat up to it)to a navaid is a federal offense. Don't do it. Tae-Kwon-Leap is not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon.

+RDVH Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 I believe the place your thinking of is 13 miles offshore and i think there may be two of them Quote Link to comment
