Imray Full Charts: C8


Two reduction of depth in the English Channel, neither of which will hinder leisure craft, four reductions of depth on the Banc a la Ligne and La Barriere off Wissant west of Calais and a change of wreck designation east of the Colbart SW south cardinal buoy


Of two reductions in the Channel, one is in the NE running TSS, the other on the tail of the Ruytingen bank.  Of the four reductions of depth ‘off Wissant’, two are shown as soundings, the third is a circular limit of low water line.  I admit needing to turn to ‘Symbols and Abbreviations’ for the ‘low water line level’ for the exact definition; that being the line of 0.  Probably suggests trying to find a lee east of Gris Nez is not the best idea.


The wreck east of the Colbart SW just in the TSS separation zone is now defined as an unsurveyed wreck over which the exact depth is unknown but is considered to have a safe clearance of 20m – so unlikely to hinder leisure craft.  Note it is marked ‘PA’ i.e. positon approximate.
