Works off Felixstowe Beach

[mormargh]

Can anyone confirm whether the barge/pipeline is still in situ and if it is necessary to go to seaward of Wadgate Ledge SHM when heading up the coast from Harwich, to avoid it? Shoal draft boat.

THIS article on Harwich Haven Ships and Yachts Forum covers what is going on there at the moment!

It was there 2 weeks ago, with the ship not attached to the pipe, which was (well buoyed) floating on the surface about 1nm offshore.... it was really quite spooky!

The barge was there this morning with a lot of pipe work on the surface near it.

There was a line of yellow bouys between the barge and the beach.
We crossed the line o.k. on 3.5m of water and did not notice any change of depth.
