New Teakettle Creek Anchorages (Statute Mile 647)
On 4/22/13, as part of a NE Florida – Georgia Wish List, we posed the following question:
Statute Mile 647 ‘“ who has anchored on New Teakettle Creek, north of AICW marker #273? Did you find this to be a good anchorage? What depths did you find?
Responses follow:
Claiborne,
In response to your request for NE Fl/GA wish list here is New Teakeattle Creek:
We anchored in New Teakeattle Creek on April 5, 2013 for our fourth vist as we were heading home to VA from Marathon on our 37′ sailing vessel. We typically anchor near the charted “13 foot'” mark, but have been further in or closer to the waterway when other boats are anchored. We find the depths to be effectively as charted, we anchor in the middle and use 75′ of chain in the water. We have been here with two other boats with lots of room. Expect to swing 180 degrees with the significant current. We have been here with a good 25 knots blowing steady and gusts to more. We slept well. A favorite spot.

Yes, early 2013. Good depths and good holding.
