I do the trip about 7 times a season. All you need is a compass, nav charts, tide charts and the abilty to use it all and you can do it. I would advise going there if all you can use is a GPS. YUou need to be able to get home if it fails. A radio and some flares, life jackets etc.. I can make the trip to SW Ledge in 1:10 if the weahter is good. Crusing at 29 knots. You can see the island as soon as you pass Pjude Light house.
