It might have been 10 feet deep 40 years ago! I draw 4.5 and have about 18" under the keel. I had a boat that drew 5'10" and could get in but had to be careful. I am talking about the west side.

BoatDrinks2 said: I often take a look at the soggy dollar webcam to help alleviate DIF...Occasionally there are a bunch of charter (sail and power) boats crammed in front.
For those that anchor in White Bay, how much chain do you typically put out in those "tight" quarters? Or maybe it just appears tight bc of camera angle..I'm unsure of the depth there...
When we visit white bay, we are on Ivans side hooked up to a ball. The boats right in front of Soggy Dollar are in 2-3' of water and most don't use a whole of chain if any. It's tough from your question if you mean anchoring further out or close to shore where it's packed.
