Day#103 - Point Chosen (Torry Island)

Tried to leave the Lollipop Canal, but Scot couldn't pull up the stern anchor. He had to use the winch at the bow to pull it up. Low and behold, our anchor was inside a very large truck tire. After beaching our boat,Scot lowered the anchor and pulled a couple times and finally the tire came loose.


Free dock in Torry Island



On our way, we were looking for alligators and wild life because this leg of the trip is like a jungle cruise. Went through Moore Haven Lock which had only one exit gate working. That was pretty "tricky" especially with the current. Trying to find an anchorage with no luck, we pulled into a city dock in Torry Island near Slim's Fish Camp. We inched our way in to a free dock and tied up for the night. No electricity or running water, but they did have some restrooms available. It was so fun to watch the swamp boat activity here.
