Following several incidents of “stray” boats, a programme has begun to replace and realign the limit marks.

The eastern limits, running in a line from the southern end of Denny Island to the bird hide on Sutton Wick shore (approx.. S.S.W.) are ¾ laid running from the island.

The southern limits are in place bar for a couple of buoys closest to Sutton Wick, the line of sight is S.E. and runs from the bird hide on Nunnery Point with the red life belt in front of it to the birds hide on Sutton Wick shore, very conspicuous and easy to see.

The western limits between Woodford Lodge flagpole and Nunnery Point only has 2 buoys at present and the limit buoys at the north end of Denny Island to the picnic area are missing.

Beware of the shallows running N.E. from Nunnery Point as they now extend 100-150mts out from the bank and are a danger area to any boat with a dagger board or fixed rudder.

The Roman Shallows are now less than a metre below the surface. For those unsure of their location, despite hopefully looking at the topographical map in the main clubroom, they lie between club racing marks “C” and “6” looking from the clubhouse and are 50-80mts further south than a line drawn between the two, again you are sailing into danger if you go there!

Please familiarise yourselves with the limits as displayed in the clubhouse and keep within!
