I use one of those screw in augers designed for a dog. OK to keep my boat at
the shore - we usually beach it. The auger means I don't have to constantly
check on the boat to make sure it hasn't drifted away. I don't know how much
I'd trust it if the boat wasn't at least partly beached. 2000 pounds of boat
can probably break it free.

Speaking of attachment options, I was planning on bringing my leash/rope
tether. One of those screw in metal stakes that I use for tethering a
horse
or dog.

Thanks for the description.

I guess I should really be asking, how far off the beach do I want my boat
to be pulled/bungeed back to?


Instead of that, look at the screw in augers like they use for mobile
home tie downs. You can also get them in different lengths. I use a
12" one.
