Transit of Moriches Bay area (New York)

Each year we head "East" on our annual 2-3 week getaway out to the East end of Long Island, Block Island, Etc.. Staying on the "inside" the intercoastal route takes us E/W and W/E through the Moriches Bay area. We typically rely on local knowledge from TowBoat US as the local Captain provides great support/direction, we have made the transit the past two years with minimal fuss in our GB32 with 3' 10" draft.... 4'....

Heading out in mid July and will be pinging TowBoat Moriches (left FB message tonite) regarding this year's routing guidance as year to year this area, with strong currents and shifting sand, is very subject to change... will post local conditions as we gain knowledge or actual transit... does anyone have current 2022 knowledge of this area?

Thanks! Patience
