Cook Point – Fort Pierce Anchorage (Statute Mile 964.5)
The entrance to the anchorage described by Captains John and Sue below, cuts east, immediately north of the North Fort Pierce bascule bridge. Personally, I would not want to take a vessel larger than 45 feet into this channel.
Subject: Anchorage-Cook Pt./Ft. Pierce
Cruising News: Anchored up cut adjacent to north side of Cook Pt./Ft. Pierce, went in 1/4 mile beyond low bridge on south side of cut to beyond the Idle Speed/No Wake sign. Plenty of water on south side of cut. A little skinny for the first 1/10th mile. Good protection w/a bonus of a fair view of the Nov. 14 Endeavor launch.
