Gilmerton Bridge
- Location: Portsmouth, VA
- Lat / Lon: N 36° 46.542' / W 076° 17.909'
- Depth: 9-13 feet
- Description:
Boats often anchor south in 9 to 13 feet MLW all around the Gilmerton Bridge to wait out railroad bridge closures. Some stay all night (safely out of the waterway, of course).
DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
