There is a new private buoy 200 yards east of the outer channel markers. This buoy marks a very large rock that sits two feet below the surface at chart datum and weighs about four tons. Don’t bother going over to check it out!

private-markerThe actual position is:

45 deg 21.270 N
075 deg 49.312 W

Secondly, the Outer Right Returning Channel Marker has been relocated slightly North West of the position it had migrated to over the past year. This opens up the outer end of our marked channel somewhat . Please remember the anchor chains for these marks have some scope at low water so depending on wind direction you could be right over top a concrete anchor if you stay too close to a mark that is downwind.

Furthermore there is no favored side of the channel so please stay to your own side when passing boats going the opposite direction.
