Great Anchorages Project

[sailorsnook]

Would anyone like to help with this project?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE YOUR NAME IN PRINT?


My book on anchoring:


HOW TO ANCHOR SAFELY – SO YOU SLEEP WELL!


Is selling rather well for a book on such a particular subject in such a niche market, so I'm tempted to add a second book, or an appendix to the original to reissue. You can see inside the current book by searching for Malcolm Snook on Amazon

The new addition is:

GREAT ANCHORAGES OF THE WORLD

Of course I have a few ideas of my own, but not enough for a sizeable appendix or a whole new book! So I'm asking all my many sailing friends to submit suggestions as to great anchorages they know and love. You can submit one or several and state whether you'd like a credit ie this anchorage was submitted by Horatio Nelson of sailing yacht Victory.

If you want to submit several and have me add a link to a project of your own I'm open to ideas!


What I'm looking for is this:

Name of anchorage

Country

Lat and Long of a safe waypoint just outside the entrance for sailors to look up
Submitted by (If you want you name on it, leave blank if not)

A short description of what makes this anchorage so great in your view. As a guide: Is it particularly safe (that's always good)? Holding? Is it a good bolt hole in bad weather? Is it tremendously beautiful? Does it have great facilities, a wonderful city, or do you love it for its seclusion? Is it special for its wildlife? Is it special for its social life? Is it a place you could over winter afloat with no problems? Any caveats? Any other comments or reasons of your own?
