Summertime and the Livin’ is Easy

By Andy Turpin | August 6, 2008 | Clipper Cove |

Regarding the letter about Clipper Cove in the August issue of Latitude 38, I definitely agree there’s plenty of space in the anchorage. The ‘unattended’ boat issue is more about aesthetics than space — at this point anyway.

I was anchored there this past weekend on my C&C 37 Liberty and counted about 15 boats that appeared to be unattended — a few in good repair, a half dozen looking like no one had been aboard in a long time, and another half dozen that look fully abandoned and in bad shape. They certainly didn’t slow us down from having a great time. It was Delta warm on Saturday — to the point that the swimming was great!
