Imray Leisure Folio: 2000.1, 2000.8, 2100.1 This is a sad time when five useful marks are unmaintained and now declining. Topmarks of each of the five beacons listed have now apparently fallen. Unfortunately as the Middle Sand is a red and white beacon, this can now be regarded as a safe area once the stump has fallen below the HW.

Affects UKHO Charts: 3741 Imray Charts: C1 UKHO Leisure Folios: 5607.9 Imray Leisure Folios: 2000.6, 2000.7. I caused this five reductions of depth in the Mersea Quarters and entrance to Tollesbury Creek following a survey in the autumn last year. Local buoyage has been lifted and will be changed shortly. Mersea Spit has changed shape and local fishermen reporting touching bottom at the bottom of LW springs. It is now NOT possible to expect 2m CD throughout the Quarters. The image is based upon the current Imray chart and can be downloaded. But I would recommending that my CTTE images are used. Again the current (as at Week 4) shows the old local buoyage but this will be altered (and announced) as soon as it is laid.
