| Englewood, FL Anchorage |
We headed out of the Manatee River, across a very short span
of Tampa Bay, and entered the ICW near Anna Maria Island. We proceeded down the ICW, encountering
numerous bridges. Most opened on
request, with no significant waits encountered.
It was not a particularly relaxing day, as there were lots of bends in
the narrow channel, and a number of shoaled areas. The spot we had selected for our evening
anchorage was well off the channel, and contained about 12-15 boats when we
arrived. Most did not appear occupied,
and one even sported a sign “this boat is not abandoned”. We managed to find a spot to drop the hook
near some mangrove islands, and had a delightful remote and well-protected
anchorage with few people around.
Several rain showers (as every day) came through, then it was calm and
cool overnight.
