Choosing an anchorage
First time in a really long time... in fact, the first time ever
outside our home waters... we stayed at anchor in a lovely cove all day yesterday instead of moving on. The charts & cruising guides did not show any place that looked good to stop until getting into the next town. How does everyone pick an anchorage? Charts can show good shelter but generally give only vague hints about holding ground, shoreline property/development, etc etc. Most cruising guides give the *BEST* anchorage for a long way and don't mention any alternates (indeed, some "cruising guides" don't mention anchorages at all). Today while running upriver we saw two nice creeks that probably would have been fine for an overnight stay, and closer by a few hours to today's destination. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
