Descriptions and reviews

description

Good strategic anchorage for sailboats en route to Lancaster Sound or Pond Inlet.
Approach: caution, in case of strong wind, the bend of Navy Board Inlet can be subject to strong venturi effects.
The anchorage is on starboard, just after passing the entrance channel. Anchor in 5 to 17 meters of water, over a hard mud bottom offering good holding.
In case of an east gale, an emergency anchorage is possible outside the bay, on the south side of the entrance channel.
Tay Bay is located in Sirmilik National Park. A permit issued by the Parks Canada office at Pond Inlet is required before anchoring there.

In 2011, Alvah Simon wintered there. He recounts this experience in his book North into the Night.

Want to know how the wind score works? Then you should read this explanation.

The wind forecasts come from yr.no (Norwegian Meteorological Institute), and was last updated -116 minutes ago (Sunday 20 September 08:16 AM). The next night score shows you the worst hour between 22:00 and 08:00 the next night. We recommend that you check multiple sources for wind forecasts. windy.com is a good website to show larger wind systems.
