the bridge opens!We need to know what happens when you 'Push here' on the land south-west of the creek!
The area probably needs servicing from Tillergirl & Co. Ltd (Depth Soundings Experts) .I do not know who but somebody once said "height of tide in metres at Southend gives the same height in feet over the shallowest part of the Havengore crossing. Thus 4 meters of tide height at Southend gives 4 feet of depth over the Havengore route. "

I was always told I needed 4.7m height of tide at Southend to safely navigate the Havengore route. I have a 1m draft so this sounds in the ball park with a bit of clearance under the keel.I do not know who but somebody once said "height of tide in metres at Southend gives the same height in feet over the shallowest part of the Havengore crossing. Thus 4 meters of tide height at Southend gives 4 feet of depth over the Havengore route. "

I've found that to be pretty accurate. The shallow bit is crossing the Broomway, outside the creek entrance.I do not know who but somebody once said "height of tide in metres at Southend gives the same height in feet over the shallowest part of the Havengore crossing. Thus 4 meters of tide height at Southend gives 4 feet of depth over the Havengore route. "

Although the immediate area doesn't show up as a No Fly Zone, I'd be very surprised if drone flying there didn't attract the attention of some armed personnel!.........Some drone footage would be nice, at say half tide.
Good point.Although the immediate area doesn't show up as a No Fly Zone, I'd be very surprised if drone flying there didn't attract the attention of some armed personnel!
Someone pulls the plug and you run out of water.What could possibly go wrong ?
Also confirmed in the last line of info here QinetiQ - Information for Pilots and i assume their "sea area" is indicated by their "outer firing danger area" shown on the nautical charts.I’m not massively familiar with drone rules and regs but this indicates to me that it is a no-fly zone, unless I’m reading it wrong.

Excellent idea. Like a "Try before you buy".View attachment 177097
This was us last summer, July I think, when we timed it wrong, done it quite a few times before but we timed it just as it started to ebb. It was a very small tide and we were off no trouble next day, but it was a wonderful night spent there.
You can see the posts marking the channel in front of us.
