Anyone here have experience anchoring in Ford Cove (Hornby Island)? It's close to where I now live and looks like a good place to visit, but I'm a bit concerned at how unprotected it is as an anchorage.

[Edited to add: I have a swing keel and rudder and can anchor in only 1-2 m of water, if necessary.]

I have anchored there a couple of times. It’s pretty protected with a line of rocks outside and is protected from southerlies by the headland. We’ve never had any trouble there.
