Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 63'
Draft: 8.5'Overall Rating:3Holding:4Wind Protection:3Current Flow:2Wake Protection:2Scenic Beauty:3Ease of Shopping:1Shore Access:1Cell Service:3Anchored here just west of the mooring field in 20 kt Northerly. Strong currents with 10 foot tidal range will swing you 180 degrees depending on the wind.. Tricky channel along Clark Island but Navionics is accurate. Great overnight layover anchorage to time the Canal passage.

Anchorage Review for Phinneys Harbor-Monument Beach
Reviewed by: HJ Earl on Oct 10, 2019
Vessel Type: Sail
LOA: 63'
Draft: 8.5'Overall Rating:3Holding:5Wind Protection:2Current Flow:3Wake Protection:1Scenic Beauty:3Ease of Shopping:1Shore Access:4Pet Friendly:3Cell Service:4Anchored here in July and again in October to visit friends on Back River. We anchored in the middle of the harbor at 41 43.22N 070 37.29 W. Holding is excellent in mud. Open to the SW which is the prevailing summer wind. There is a crowded dinghy dock shoreward south of the Monument Beach Pier/Marina. Shopping is a convenience store a 10 minute walk from the marina. Pizza joint, ice cream and a bakery are nearby.
