We usually manage to find the odd deserted beach around Anglesey. However, quite a few of these have submerged rocks etc. We often use a bungee anchor off the stern, motor in, unload for a few hours, then let the bungee pull the rib back out in to deeper water and secure the pointy end of the boat via a long line and grapnel on the beach. When you are ready for the off, just pull her back in, reload, let the bungee pull you out and away you go.
