Boat Launch Operation

While I was in Alaska, we went to “Eagle Beach”, so named by our tour guide. This was actually at a place near Homer called Anchor Point. There’s a large beach area and the parking lot was filled with vehicles, but I didn’t notice very many people around on the beach. Turns out it’s a popular area for fishing boats to launch from. Anchor Point Boat Launch provides a tow to the water line until the boats are deep enough to launch. I had never seen an operation like this in effect and thought it might interest some of you fishing enthusiasts. Presumably you get towed back up but I didn’t witness that end of the operation. The beach is littered with fish skeletons, which normally attract the eagles (though not while we were there).
