Rogue to Dyer NE Cove with a Mistake in the middle

Tom McDonagh

Well, it’s that time to head south with Roque Island being the farthest east for us this year. Our first night heading west was to be Mistake Island. Obviously, folks did not get the memo as SOMEONE was anchored in our spot! We did not want to crowd the other boats so we decided to check out Dyer Island NE cove. With winds topping 16 knots overnight, we wanted a spot that might cut the wind down a bit. It turned out to be a beautiful little cove with good protection from the from the south thru the NW. our first attempt at anchoring in 15 feet of water dragged a bit with thick mud coming up with the anchor. We deployed again in 11’ of water at low tide. Paying out 80’ of chain and another 15’ of snubber will hopefully keep us tight. Stay tuned!
