54 mile day

Boho Bay. Another out of the way anchorage that nobody seems to know about. I don't know, maybe they don't want to know. It's a scenic anchorage with a couple of homesteads built on the shoreline. It's a little tricky to get your anchor set because it's so deep right up until it's too shallow.

Kevin asked: why don't we drop the anchor farther into the bay where it's more shallow? My answer: the bay doesn't appear to be big enough for my comfort farther in. It doesn't have good swinging room, which means if the wind direction changes we might find ourselves on the bottom.

A couple more boats have come in since we came. I can see them wrestling with the same decision that we came to, trolling around the shallow end, then coming out to anchor deeper. Some Cabin cruiser will come in and throw their anchor in the shallow end, but they won't have much chain out. They'll get away with it because it's not going to blow very hard tonight. Until they don't.

Stew tonight. Kevin is crafting it as we speak.
