Man O War Bay Mooring Field
- Lat / Lon: N 26° 35.791' / W 077° 00.415'
- Description:
They say there is no anchoring in Man O War Bay however we saw five boats that appeared to be anchored at the northwest end. Well, protected from wind and swell from all four directions . One must be aware that there are several concrete mooring blocks that are unmarked. We witnessed an island packet with a 4'5" draft get lifted 3 inches out of the water as he ran across an unmarked mooring block. We rented a mooring ball from the township and drifted across another mooring block behind us gently scraping it at low tide as well with a 4'2" draft The township manages these mooring balls, and it is a shame that they don't do a better job of marking, maintaining, or placing them.
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.
