This week's puzzler:
I have a 209 Escape, and am on the water in a protected bay, with bulkhead, but no dock yet - [permits pending]. Sandy bottom, soft. Maybe 5-10' of beach. Tides about 2-3 feet in height, maybe 7 feet in length, to the bulkhead. Pilings at bulkhead. I want the boat at the house, for obvious reasons. How best can I anchor the boat to do this - two anchors, one placed on the beach by hand? One anchor at bow, tie down stern to bulkhead? Better idea? Advice welcomed.
Thx in advance.
