Excellent holding! Got caught in an unexpected storm a couple years ago in May. We got half way to Anegada and the storm closed in on us from the north and west. Turned around and headed back to North Sound. We had one chance to grab a ball at Leverick. The gust pushed us off and then visibility was maybe 10 feet. Motored north of mooring field and dropped the hook. Chain stopped at 60 feet. 3 to 1 scope held in 40 knot sustained winds for near two hours. I stayed at the helm with the engine running in neutral the entire time with the wind finally slowing after over 2 hours.
