Deben entrance 2026

[Johnah]

Hi All,
These photos and video were taken at Low Water (0.3m) on February 20th 2026, indicating that since last summer, the knolls have moved again.

The buoys are still in their 2025 positions and the 2026 entrance survey has yet to be carried out, so it could be a few weeks before the buoys are re-positioned.

Check with Harbour Master John White or John Barber for advice.

It's going t be an interesting survey this year!

Indeed, John White has requested that anyone planning to transit the entrance should ask him or John Barber first.

I think I'll wait for a re-positioning of the buoys, the outer green (Mid Knoll) looks particularly misleading

Today 20th Feb at 7am. Oops, I put 26th at the top, but have since edited it to 20th. It's taken me all day to warm up!

Seconded.
I can't believe it was a year ago when you did the last survey.
