Croker Island Harbour

• Location: North Channel
• Lat / Lon: N 46° 04.757' / W 082° 12.794'
• Depth: At least 8 feet
• Description:

  The larger of its two harbors is 40 feet deep and requires a long anchor rode. In a west wind, anchoring here would be unwise. The chart shows the smaller anchorage, to starboard as you enter, with 13-foot depths; this is inaccurate. The available area is larger than shown and as deep as 16 feet. There is room in the larger harbor for 30 or more good-sized vessels; the smaller anchorage might hold a dozen boats if they anchor with sterns tied to shore.

  DISCLAIMER: Before committing to an anchorage, you should confirm that the location is not governed by a regulation that may conflict with your plans. An increasing number of states and municipalities are enacting laws that define where and how long you may anchor.
