    Good achorage for a stop over. Anchored outside of the channel as shown in 14 feet of water. Anchor set on second try. Well protected except for SW swell. Anchor farther north for better protection . Current was moderate at its worst. Refueled at Hyannis marina then used their dock for my dinghy. There is a public landing you could leave your dink at but not guarantees om security. The ferries go by at minimum speed so nice and quiet at night but during the day there is some wakes. Take Fido for easy stroll on Egg Island or on the mainland shore. Lots of room for lots of boats.
