depths and scope in Effingham Bay
wow
great pics and posts. thanks.
planning on Barkley Sound mid June (next month) and have read all of the usual guides. some of the popular anchorages, Effingham Bay, in particular, seem a bit deep to achieve adequate scope (50 foot at zero tide, so including tide and freeboard could be 60 foot meaning at least 300 feet for 5:1).
is this accurate, or am I mistaken?
we've only got 200' off all chain, though we do keep spare 350' mixed chain/3 strand as secondary rode.
we were looking at Joes Bay/Turtle Is as maybe a more sheltered anchorage w better depths - anyone been there?
