Playing “Where are the rock(s).”
That’s a serious difference, we don’t want to anchor too close to the shoal.

We anchored between “a rock and a hard place”. 😁
We’ve been in this bay before, it doesn’t have a name, but it’s right next to the entrance to the small community of Thorne Bay. I think everyone who lives there has a some kind of a boat, skiff or kayak, that would add up to about 475 boats. I don’t know how many homes are on the road connected to town, but cabins and homes line the entire bay, called the North, and South ends, and many of the inhabitants are accessing town from the water.
We took our dinghy to town from our anchorage, it's about 3 miles. We wanted to know if they had a fuel dock, they do, what the grocery store looked like, bare, as the supply barge hadn't been in yet, and what the cost of moorage is if we wanted to bring Denali Rose in, $1.00 a foot, addl $25.00 for power - ea 24hours.

The marina entrance to town.
One evening in our bay, we had an unexpected visit by a humpback whale. He scooped up whatever food he found, and exited out.
Not a great photo, but sometimes you just have to live in the moment, and not through a lens.
As always, we enjoy hearing from you, either here in comments or on our Facebook Denali Rose Sailboat page.
