Just thought i would ask.... any suggestions for sleeping over night in the boat??? what to be carefull of. I have been out at night but nevr slept... good or bad idea??? I just want to be out there in early morn when it all starts

Make sure you ware of the weather forcast, anchor up well, anchor front and back does not hurt, but have to be careful a wind change overnight wont have you side on to the wind/swell.

Make sure your out of the way, cant guarantee some boofhead wont miss your anchor light and run over the top of you.

dont do it anywhere near a shipping channel, or in the tidal zone (I do remember the sun coming up one morning when I had been out with Ray at the pin overnight to find I had probably been casting onto a dry exposed sandbank about 20 foot away from the boat for the last hour!)

A good loud alarm clock, dont want to wake up at 9am after all that effort!

Also useful in these days of modern technology is that some of the sounder / GPS combo's come with a drift alarm. If you have one set it!

I most likely got to this a bit late but Horseshoe Bay is the best spot up that way. Good soft water and plenty of shelter. Not far to the \"Hole\" on the nth eastern tip of Peel.
