31 May 2011. Anchoring south of Savannah has always proved troublesome. But as the picture shows we've found a nice spot 1nm from ICW up the Vernon River. The tidal range here is 8' so even on a windless night there's a worry about the anchor's ability to withstand the strong currents. The advantage of this spot is the river's width. The wider the river the slower the tidal currents. DBH
