I will be taking my 28' Magic to Park Moabi next weekend for the first time. I'm a little concearned about my boat wanting to pull my anchor up as the current picks up on the river. I have a big box anchor and sand spike. Will that hold it in place across the current? I guess I could just beach it, but than I would need to move it out as the water goes down. I'm just wondering what other guys do there that works.

A box anchor and a Sand Spike should be perfect as long as you dont have it completly tied up side ways to the current.
-
sideways to the current??
you mean at a 90 degree angle to the current..
the boat should be parallel w/ the current???
-
Thats what I mean :messedup:
-
use a anchor buddy for the front, it's like a big bungee that will let the boat move a little but wont pull the anchor when hit by wakes.
-
At moabi you can get it out of the current by anchoring it just on the south side of the rocky point (camp site).
-
When in doubt. Pull it out. :devil:
-
Just make sure your rope is long enough from the boat to anchor so the boat won't lift the anchor up when wake comes and you'll be good. I anchor off shore there with only one anchor.

When in doubt. Pull it out. :devil:
This is the best advise. If you have to ask, you probobly should not trust your judgement. Be safe, and protect your investment.
