The top of the Mud Hole from the Highlands is less than 10 miles.
I've run up from Shark River Inlet ( Belmar, NJ ) to the top of the Mud Hole lot's of times, and anchored in the 130' of water for bluefishing.
Not a problem for your boat, or mine- which is a 93' Mako 201 center console.
Just pick your weather - and consider any " left over chop" if it was blowing the day prior.
Marine forecast of 5-10, preferably not from the E, as the seas have so much room to build.
Go and fish. If all's fine but you're still nervous about the run, don't go.
No shame in fishing within your comfort zone - that's the way it's supposed to be.
