    Anchored here near Niantic YC on the way down the Sound for overnight refuge from building northerlies in October 2019. Holding and wind protection good but residual SW swell makes it uncomfortable. East side of bay might be better but chart notes foul ground. Not the worst roll we have been in (that award is Navadra in Fiji) but we slept in sea berths.
