When I anchor out in one of the many beautiful and secluded coves on
Beaver Lake in the summer, I try to get as far up in the cove as I
can, then secure the rode to a stern cleat. With a typical summer
high pressure system over many states, there is no general breeze.
However, night time cooling has the land cooling with radiation, and
of course the water temperature remains stable. The cooler air is
heavier and flows down the land and into the cove. With my stern
facing the gentle and much cooler flow of air, I enjoy the benefits
of Mother Nature's air conditioning. Of course a skinny dip before
turning helps a lot!
