Hear From Our Customers

SJYS has been taking care of all of my boat and service needs for over 8 years. I bought a great 23’ center console from them 3 years ago and they just sold it for me at a great price. My boat is kept in a slip at the Somers Point location and is serviced only by their outstanding mechanics. I have met the staff from the owner to the forklift operator and they are all honest, well-qualified people who genuinely strive to satisfy your boating needs. I would highly recommend their marina, service and sales departments.

Connie Henry

I worked with Bill Kocis on both the purchase and later sale of my boat. Bill is extremely knowledgeable and well-connected, making both transactions very seamless for me as a boater.

Duffy Hutchinson

I have purchased 3 boats and they sold my 3 boats that i was exiting to get into my new one i was getting from SJYS. Drew Santoro is who i deal with and is the man to deal with.

JCYS Representing Bahama Boat Works

NEW Location - Dillon's Creek Marina

Soundings Magazine 36' Jersey Cape "Liki Tiki"

I met Scott while chartering his boat, “Island Girl” over three years ago.

Having been interested in boating for years and never owning one of my own, I began asking questions and he was very receptive.

Today, I now own a brand new Spectre by Pilini center console and during the build process Scott set up a flight to Florida to “spec” the exact boat to fit my needs.

What began as a simple flounder charter trip has evolved into a friendship and I’m grateful for Scott’s willingness to share information about both boating and offshore fishing. He put me on my current boat and, as a result, I am now canyon fishing regularly.

With Scott and the crew at Jersey Cape Yacht Sales you will not only find the right boat for you, but also incredible customer service and a willingness to share their wealth of information with you.

Tight lines, Brad Chukinas

Yachts For Sale In Cape May

Located on the southern peninsular tip of New Jersey between Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, Cape May is the oldest seaside resort in America with historical roots going back to the 18th century. The entire city has been designated a National Historical Landmark for its well-preserved original Victorian buildings. Two miles of pristinely maintained beaches are lined with exquisite multi-storied Victorian-era houses, adding to Cape May’s resort charm. Visit the Emlen Physick Estate, a historic Victorian house and museum for an 1879 “slice of life.” Also of historical interest is the Harriet Tubman Museum commemorating the years she lived in Cape May during the 1850s, working in hotels and homes as a cook to fund her life’s mission to help slaves to freedom. In the heart of Cape May’s historical district, is the charming brick-paved Washington Street Mall, lined with boutiques, eateries, coffee, sweet treats, and other specialty shops. Cape May is also known for the USCG Training Center that is the only facility providing basic training for nationwide enlisted recruits.

Cape May is surrounded by protected wetland wildlife and natural areas. The Cape May peninsula and southern tip of New Jersey is one of the world’s greatest migratory bird paths with thousands flying in from all over the world, making Cape May one of the top birding sites in the USA. The Cape May Bird Observatory coordinates birding activities for the area, including the World Series of Birding held annually in May. Another major natural attraction is whale and dolphin watching. The Cape May Whale Watch Research Center, founded in 1987, is the original eco-tour operation, utilizing “Citizen Scientists” to assist Marine Naturalists with ongoing research and conservation education, with their observations. The Research Center Tours operate out of the South Jersey Marina.

The most common whale species sighted is the Humpback whale, especially the juveniles. The young whales are attracted to the abundant food along the Jersey Shore—herring, menhaden, and zooplankton, especially copepods, without having to compete with adult whales that travel further north to the Nova Scotia and New England feeding grounds. Humpback whales are listed as endangered in the State of New Jersey. Other whale species sighted are Fin whales, the second largest after the Blue whale and often seen with dolphin. Fin whales are an endangered US and NJ species. Minke whales are the smallest baleen whales and are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

They are fast moving and may enter bays and harbors. Minkes will often approach a boat; never feed or harass marine wildlife. The Northern Right whale is the most endangered of the large whale species in the world, with females being most vulnerable. Right whales migrate seasonally along the US east coast. Their primary feeding ground is off the New England coast. Dolphins are now common sights along the Jersey Shore from late spring to early fall. Common Atlantic/Bottlenose dolphin, Short-Beaked Common dolphin, Striped dolphin (known for roto-tailing), and Atlantic White-sided dolphin are some of the species sighted offshore.

Cape May “fishing fever” begins in mid-March. Whether fishing from land (piers, surf casting) or sea (coastal and offshore boats), EVERYONE FISHES IN CAPE MAY! The most popular and prized gamefish is the striped bass (striper) and landing a 28-inch or longer “keeper striper” will ensure bragging-rights for the season. Spring fishing season opens with weak fish, then other species as the water warms. Mackerel and herring are caught for bait during the summer months in pursuit of larger gamefish. In mid-June, sport fishermen fish the 100-fathom “canyon” edge of the Atlantic continental shelf for marlin, tuna, and shark. Considered a gentlemen’s sport, sponsored tournaments such as the Mid-Atlantic $500,000, attract multi-million-dollar sport fisher tournament yachts outfitted with the latest technology and electronics to get them on a trophy fish. Many assist the Billfish Foundation by tagging and releasing their catch. Some of the local full-service marinas that offer transient as well as seasonal slips are Cape May Marina, Utsch’s Marina, and Snug Harbor Marina.

Planned Outage for Some Cornell Lab Services

Several Cornell Lab of Ornithology services will be unavailable beginning March 19 through 6:00 a.m. U.S. Eastern time on March 21 . This is a one-time disruption while we migrate more than 1.6 billion eBird observations and additional project data to new servers. After the move, our websites will have improved reliability, stability, and room to grow. Thank you for your understanding during this outage.

Don’t worry, your data (checklists, media, Bird Academy courses, Merlin life list, etc.) will be safe during the migration and will be unaffected when we come back online.

Unavailable: The following websites and services will be down during this period:

• eBird.org , including eBird portals, eBird Alerts, the eBird API, eBird Science, and data downloads
• Macaulay Library
• Birds of the World

Partially affected: Several Cornell Lab projects will remain up but services that require a login will be unavailable:

• Bird Academy login and store will be unavailable. Users will be able to access most course materials if they were logged in to the site before the outage. Snap ID quizzes will not function during the outage.
• NestWatch and Project FeederWatch login and data entry will be unavailable both on the website and the app. Please record your data on paper and enter it after the outage ends.
• eBird Mobile app : The Explore and My eBird functions will not work during the outage. You can use the app to create checklists and then submit them after the outage ends. Your eBird data will be safe.
• Merlin Bird ID app : Sound ID will continue to work, as well as Photo ID, Step-by-Step, and Explore, using your recent locations only. You will not be able to save sightings, refresh your life list, update your location, or log in to your account. These functions will return when the outage ends and your data will be safe.

Unaffected: The following sites will continue to function as normal:

• Cornell Lab of Ornithology institutional website
• All About Birds
• Cornell Lab YouTube channel

What Can I Do During the Outage?

Go out birding.

• If you already have Merlin Bird ID app installed, you can still use it for some purposes. Though you won’t be able to update your location, save sightings, or refresh your life list, the ID functions will still work with your saved locations, and you can still browse species using Explore Birds
• If you already have the eBird Mobile app installed on your device, you can start eBird Mobile checklists during the downtime and submit them once eBird is back online. Learn how to Enter Sightings with eBird Mobile
