Ya did the right thing cuming in And not a bad catch for the conditions . I nearly had the same thing happen to me at the island. Anchor was stuck for about 30 mins and swell was getting worse. After we got it out we headed straight back in. Will never drop anchor around that area again

the divers off the back of the island pay there college loans back with anchors and leads 
its a minefield of rocks and reefs.iv never dropped anchor at the back of islands eye it would be asking for trouble the currents and swells that are there you would have to be mad
