With a modern bunk trailer, a good launch, and some practice, it's not that much more difficult or time consuming to put your boat on the trailer for the night than it would be to anchor it securely. There's also no wading or paddling back and forth out to your boat (that alone would be a deal breaker for me), it'll be infinitely easier to put your cover on/off, you have access to all your fishing gear, and it can be plugged in to charge.

I think you'll quickly find that you'll be "in the same boat", when it comes to the idea of anchoring or beaching your boat overnight. Nope.
Thanks for sharing, I've thought about the theft issue but I didn't consider all the stuff that has to go in and out of the boat each night or the cover. I'm used to my parents lake lot where they have hoists and giant canopies. "In the same boat"....
