Fox Town Outer Anchorage

26° 55.8′ N · 77° 48.0′ W

The deeper outer anchorage off Fox Town, protected by flats and rocks and usable by boats of up to about 6.5 ft draft.

Practical

ActiveCaptain position. Good holding in sand; protection from east, north-east and even south-east if you stay in the deepest part of the channel; boats rode out 35-knot winds here (2017). Easterly winds can make it bouncy, and north-north-east sent one crew to another cay (2016). The town is a fair dinghy ride away. Free internet was available at Da Valley (pre-Dorian). Pre-Dorian reports (2013-2018).
