There is still (or was last fall) anchor room in front of the KHYC, the little Fisherman's area to the East side of the Isthmus. With the C Dory you can get in there. Also at Cat harbor, you can always get in close over the mud flats--too shoal for mooring bouys.
My favorite to the East of Isthums is Ripper's. There is a very small cove with beach just to the East of Ripper's --no name on it, but room for a C Dory--and rare to see any other boats there. Anchor fore and aft. _________________ Bob Austin

The Fortress is great for the typical bottom on the Chesapeake. I have a FX 16 & FX11 on board with 150' of chain and a bow roller. The 16 would probably hold the C-Dory 22 in almost any conditions.
This summer I was on the hook with the FX11, when a 50kt squall blew through the anchorage. There was no time to switch to the FX16, but it was not necessary because the FX11 held firm and did not drag.
