Happy Days

Type:
shipwreck, schooner
Depth:
115 ft

The Happy Days appears to be the remains of a wooden schooner. The Happy Days sits in 115 feet of water just east of the G&D wreck. According to Jimmy Fazzolare this wreck consists of scattered wreckage with one mast stump sticking up. Jim reports that the wrecks bell was recovered by one of the Aquarians Club divers. Unfortunately, the bell did not have the wreck's name on it. Visibility here is often hampered by sediment from a silty bottom. Jim reports that this wreck is one of the best lobster wrecks in the area.

Reef Balls

reef balls

By Bill Figley
Principal Fisheries Biologist

For the first time, early this summer 1999, New Jersey's Reef Program will place 600 designed fish habitats on its ocean artificial reefs. These designed reef habitats, called Reef Balls, were developed and patented by a company in Sarasota, FL. Reef Balls are made of concrete and resemble an igloo with lots of holes. The habitats are 4' in diameter, 3' high and weigh about 1,400 pounds. The many holes around the periphery provide access for fish, crabs, and lobsters to the hollow interior of the undersea homes.
