Review for Port Sanilac
Reviewed by: K Taube on Sep 6, 2022
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 41'
Draft: 2.0'Overall Rating:1Holding:1Wind Protection:5Current Flow:3Wake Protection:5Scenic Beauty:1Ease of Shopping:2Shore Access:5Pet Friendly:5Cell Service:5WiFi:1We anchored here for a bit but kept slipping, when we pulled up the anchor we had about - 5 ft diameter ball of seaweed on the anchor. It took me 30 minutes to clean it all off, and it was so heavy the windlass couldn't pull it up more than a foot above the water. I do not recommend anchoring here unless absolutely necessary, we went outside the jetties and anchored on the south side as there were northern winds. It was rocky from waves, but the anchor held and no seaweed.
The boat ramp is still easily accessible and the fuel dock is also very accessible.
There isn't much in town, but the dollar general is well stocked and just a few blocks away.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer
