The channel is always moving, and despite appearances when you get there, the buoys are generally on their correct sides of the channel.

The Lancaster Port Authority kindly keep us updated with changes in buoyage as and when they happen, Mike sends them out via email, and John updates the Forum Section with them so will have the latest Notice to Mariners.

The channel near the club is sometimes the wrong side of nos 14 and 18, but there is usually plenty of water both sides

Be sure to go round the other buoys on the correct side, particularly no 8 and 10 ,

Out bound, do not head west till you get near the no 5 buoys

The main dangers to avoid at low water are the training walls near Basil Buoy and the rock bank at Sunderland.
