Psld,
Where on the east coast is there a remote anchorage? Remote to me after a few years in Alaska is no chance of reaching a place to tie my boat up to a float in a full day underway. Or no point in waiting for another boat to come into the anchorage. Get on the VHF and have flown in whatever you need or want. Docks are almost unheard of on the west coast. But remote to someone like yourself on the east coast may be very different. How remote is the anchorage you mentioned in the last post? There is no remote in Western Washington state where I live now IMO.
Ayala/Hospital Cove at the Angel Island State Park has a popular moorage (docks for day-use only). Photo taken by FlyWright while my Coot is in the front row and Ray's GB 42 is just to the right.
While the SF Bay/estuary is in a heavily populated area, it's not difficult to find an isolated anchorage (but obviously not Richardson Bay, Ayala Cove, and similar popular areas.) Most isolated areas are in the north bay, northern Suisun Bay, and in parts of the Delta.
