About American Legion

American Legion is a public boat ramp in Westmoreland County, Virginia, on Chandler's Mill Pond. From here SeaStatus scores 2 waters: Tidal Potomac from Indian Head to Cobb Island MD and Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA.

The main water here is Tidal Potomac from Cobb Island MD to Smith Point VA. Rivers are scored mostly on wind and current. Wave height is not part of the score, because a river has no real sea state; visibility and comfort make up the rest. Wind, and waves where it reports them, come from NDBC buoy 44042, and tide predictions come from NOAA station 8635409, Mount Holly, Nomini Creek, Va., the closest one to here. Its conditions are read at a reference point on the water about 16.7 mi from this ramp.
