From North sound we typically point due north. With the additional 10-15 degrees of leeway of the sailboat this has us arrive at the Western tip of Anegada west of the Twin Sisters coral heads on the approach to Anegada Harbor. We do not stray east of this course-made-good by very much. You don't have to clear Pomato point by a ton, but there's no real reason to crowd it either. Leave Pomato Point half a mile to starboard and you should have no worries. We generally trail two lines during this trip and will typically catch a barracuda half-way through the trip to Anegada. Added: There is very good guidance on Sailing to Anegada and local knowledge at the following link: http://bvipirate.com/NavToAnegada.html
