    We decided that the marked anchorage was too close to traffic and houses so we decided to anchor at N 34 23.522 W 77 36.071. The holding is good and the shoal between us and the main channel is offering some protection from wakes.

    I rate this rather high because the lows don't much matter to me.

    Our first anchoring attempt was likely too close to the mouth of the canal. We drug about 100 feet and when we pulled the anchor it was covered in black slimy muck. We move further down and closer to shore. Our second attempt is holding well.
