Lost anchor and Detyen's Boatyard

​Current Position:  Longitude 79.57.500W Latitude 33.0.376N (Detyen's Boatyard) 
Miles Traveled:  28
Weather:  Chilly morning, then sunny, breezy, high in mid 60's
Highlights: Raised anchor (or at least tried to) around noon in order to motor up to Detyens Boatyard.  Couldn't get the anchor up (snagged on something big), so finally cut it loose.  Debated diving on it, but both Amy and I weren't very fond of that anchor, so no big loss.  We'll replace with a 55lb Delta, and we already have a 55lb Mantus on order for a 2nd anchor.  Dropped Amy at the dock to drive the car, and I motored up the Cooper River to Detyens, arriving around 5pm.  Had a small scare en-route - water supply line to the port head sink burst, and had water spraying into the boat.  Took a minute to figure out what happened, but shut the pump off and all was good.  Last night on the boat - chilly, but quiet.
