Quite week this week:

Permanent

1. New UKHO chart coming out in August for Approaches to Felixstowe etc
2. Reduced depth in the Blackwall Reach of the Thames - probably worth noting if you are a Thames user.

Temporary

1. London Array wind farm update - cable work adjacent to the avenue leading to Foulger's. The main cable laying ship is anchored next to the Sub-Station in Foulger's so I assume that the third cable laying has reached there and is nearly complete. However this means that Foulger's is no-go this week.
2. Dredging (routine) near the Felixstowe berths and the edge of the Harwich Deep Water channel
3. The SE Roughs Tower light is temporarily out.
4. On Wednesday morning some electrical maintenance work will affect Medway VTS.

See http://www.crossingthethamesestuary.com/page9.html or www.eastcoastsailing.co.uk for details as usual.
