Seeking advice from Cottage Dads
looking for advice on now to best secure a floating island/floating mat in a large river that can have a current sometimes. My dad passed a couple of years ago and my friends and I are taking over a cottage, I know he would have known what to do but I am at a loss. We have enough knowledge to know that we’re going to need an anchor and tie off line to keep it in place but we aren’t sure where to start. cinder blocks and a chain? an actual anchor & rope? we will be brining that mat in during the week when we aren’t at the cottage so we were thinking to just have a Bouy attached to the line while it’s out of the water or is that a poor idea?
really just looking for the best way to have something to swim out to and float on while we are there and not end up 4 km down river. the current isn’t super strong but it can get going sometimes.
PLZ HELP!
