UKHO SNC: 1630.

Imray Full Charts: C30


This notice announces a family of four cardinal buoys (one each) marking the site of the ‘soon to come’ Princess Elisabeth Island.  This is located west of the Westhinder bank and east of the NE going TSS.  NtM 783 placed two yellow special buoys earlier this year in the same location.  The Belgium plan is from the ELIA group and the oject is to create an energy hub which will connect UK, Belgium and Norway.  I have linked a brochure with the usual pdf image download.  The island is to be built from now to mid 2026 and then the energy hub will be built.  The location is probably unlikely to hinder leisure craft given that crossing over the Westhinder bank is best avoided.

This notice is probably the product of the detailed survey that the Northern Wind undertook at the end of last year.  Two new obstructions off Clacton and Frinton.  Both in plenty of water for us so unlikely to hinder leisure craft – but of course might be a good lobster pot place!  Traditionally pots in this area are poorly marked by some!

This notice has 13 reductions of depth of which one is a drying height but all are located in the commercial area alongside the jetties of Shellhaven, Coryton and Chainrock.  Illustrating the changes are impractical at the scale available and are unlikely to be anywhere leisure craft should be so for the first time I am breaking my usual practice.

Two new wrecks on the Gunfleet Sands between the east side of the wind farm and the Old Gunfleet Lighthouse.  Probably unwise to try to cross the sands at that point.  The Notice also has seven reductions of depth, two very shallow depths on the Long Sand, east side of the London Array wind farm and five reductions of depth along the east side of the Kentish Knock.  Probably unwise to cross the Long Sand just east of the wind farm.  Three images: of the second image at the Long Sand three other reductions of depth reported by the earlier Notice 1880 has been included.

14 reductions of depth, 6 in and around the Hemsby and North Scroby buoys, six on the eastern side of the Scroby Sands and 2 on the Corton Sand channel.  All still have sufficient depths for leisure craft but the general trend is probably worth attention.  In one area the eastern edge of the Scroby Sand is pretty steep.

This Trinity House Notice gives advance  information of changes at the Long Sand Head.  On or around 17th May there is a move and a new buoy.  Close to the current position of the Longsand Head north cardinal buoy, a new east cardinal buoy will be positioned designated 'East Longsand Head'  Light characteristics are shown.  Also AIS will be fitted.

The Longsand Head north cardinal buoy is moved to the West providing clearance round the Long Sand Head.  The image is drawn by me based on Imray showing all recent depths and the intended positions.

Three new reduced depths for SNC 2692 at the Long Sand Head.  A new edition of SNC 2692 was only issued on 28th March!  The reduced depths indicate that the Long Sand Head continues the common trend to extend to the NE.  I understand it is likely the Long Sand Head North Cardinal which is critical marking the tight corner in the two-way TSS will be moved in due course.  The image includes 3 other reduced depths in that area that were reported earlier in NtM 1378 in Week 13.

Nine reductions of depth at the Mouse channel side of the SW Barrow knoll.  If you are a ‘corner cutter’ round the knoll (e.g. to or from the Princes Channel into the West Swin) it is worth seeing the image.  Note the edge of that sand is pretty ‘steep-too’ and the tail has shallowed.  Also if you saw NtM 638 earlier this year you will see that the depth almost exactly there has reduced from 4m to 2.7m in a matter of months.

This Notice is catching up with the changes of buoyage at the Ray Sand which occurred in 2023 as a result of surveys.  The previous two Safe Water Buoys – the Raysand North and Raysand Middle are removed completely.  A new unlit yellow buoy – The Raysand North is placed quite well to the East and the unlit round yellow Ray Sand buoy is moved to match the same longitude meridian.  There is a CTTE download at  on the Download page which provides the detailed chartlet with has had the correct buoyage since July last year.  By all means use the free download.  Use the 1° meridian to find the best water north of the Ray Sand between the River Blackwater and the Ray Sand.  There are plans for a new edition of UKHO Chart 1975 Thames Estuary – Northern Part in the summer this year which should bring the contours up to date.  As of today Navionics have placed the Ray Sand in the right place, have deleted the Raysand Middle, kept the Safe Water coloured Raysand North in the (wrong) old position and the Buxey Beacon in the wrong position.   It tends to be handy to know where you are if you use Navionics.  C-Map is up-to-date as regards the buoys.  The northern contour of the Ray Sand is as my chartlet.

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.
