UKHO Permanent/Temporary/Preliminary Notices
1. ENGLAND - East Coast - Depths. Drying heights. Drying contour. Legend. Wreck. - Three new drying areas around the Black Deep: one on Long Sand at the edge of the Black Deep No 6 port hand buoy, a second, a drying area, on the Long Sand near the Black Deep No 4 close to the old Beacon, the third, again on the Long Sand where a wreck was once marked at 3.2m. On the Little Sunk a depth is reduced to 0.9m which formerly was marked close by as 1.8m. That does not affect the Little Sunk ‘crossing’ but suggests it is worth a re-survey which we will do at the second opportunity. (we abandoned attempts to do the SW Sunk today on account of 'bouncy' weather (technical term
). Finally there is a tiny reduction of 0.1m in the centre of the Black Deep deep water channel.
2. ENGLAND - East Coast - Depths. - Six reductions of depth in the River Medway between Darnet Ness and the Medway No 15 (SHB). As all are at least 6.2 unlikely to hinder leisure craft.
3. ENGLAND - East Coast - Channel limits. Channel depth. - The Port of London Authority has established two secondary channels either side of the existing established Knock John Channel. These secondary channels alongside from the Knock John port hand buoy ‘paired’ with the Knock John No 1 south cardinal buoy to the Knock John No 7. The secondary channels have a minimum depth of 9m and vessels which can safely navigate outside of the main Knock John Channel should use it rather than the established Channel. Note that the northern side of the Knock John are for inbound vessels and the southern side for outbound vessels.
