Question re Mooring in St. Augustine Harbor, AICW Statute Mile 778
A fellow boater asks for your opinion on long term mooring in the St. Augustine harbor. The mooring field has a northern portion and a southern portion. General consensus is that the southern portion, below the Bridge of Lions, is more protected from wind and wake. Let us hear from your experience anchoring there. For more opinions, go to /112455.
I am considering mooring my 43′ pontoon houseboat here long term, but am concerned about wake from winds, boats, and the current. What are your opinions of how this would work out?

Lived on board in St A many years ago. North for the summer and south for the winter is the rule, however, neither offers good protection from north and north east wind. Gets REAL bouncy at times. I would recommend Salt Run. Cheaper too.
