F-Cove, a.k.a.
Traders Cove
- Location: West Mantoloking (40° 03'
075" N, 74° 04' 000" W)
- Directions: Just North of Mantoloking
Bridge on the Western Shore. If you are
travelling north, immediately after you
go under the Mantaloking bridge, bear
left (west) and there is a little
entrance to Fcove. There is a hump at the
entrance to the cove that is around 2.5
to 3ft deep, but after you get into the
cove it is about 13 - 15 feet through
most of it. You will have to go in
carefully, slow, and towards the left
side of the entrance. Tilt your engines
up. Most folks nose their bow against the
bank.
