I think that depends on your anchor. If you had, say, a Mantus, you could be confident going for dinner at a sandbar!

But seriously, you're right--at Braun Bay we swam way in away from Boatie Two but at Patrician Shores we kept the boat in sight just in case a big boat came by and dislodged our awesome Mantus (it didn't).
