Guide
Approach and anchoring
Anchor on mud. Protection is from the N, NE and E, so the spot is open to southerly and westerly weather. Strong tidal streams run through the harbour, so use ample scope and check the set of the anchor before leaving the boat.
Practical
Safe Harbor Charleston City is 0.4 nm to the NW with fuel and full facilities. Ripley Light Yacht Club lies 0.8 nm to the W. Downtown Charleston is within reach by tender for provisions and shops.
