Subject: Urgent Navigation Notice from Pilots
Point Marina
All mariners are
advised to exercise extreme caution when navigating the
entrance channel to
Pilots Point Marina and the Patchogue River due to ongoing
Dredging Operations.
The entrance channel to Pilots
Point Marina and the Patchogue River will be undergoing
Dredging
Operations until approximately
15 May.
Dredging operations will be
performed mostly Monday through Friday.
During dredging of the West
half of the channel,
only the East half of the
channel will be available for navigation. The initial
dredging operations will be on the West half of the channel.
During dredging of the East
half of the channel there will be periods when the
entire channel will be closed for navigation.
There will be a series of
temporary pilings set at the edges of the channel
and along the center-line as
shown
in the chart below.
Note that buoys G "3" and N "4" shown on
the chart below have been removed for
dredging operations.
Two new Ranges have been installed on the
marsh across from the Pilots Point Fuel Dock as private aids
to navigation. The two new ranges are located to either side
of the existing range and are white and orange. They
indicate the west and east edges of the channel.
It is recommended that mariners use these ranges to
avoid the shoals that exist just outside of the channel.
Also, it has been reported that the depth within the
channel is less than reported on the chart so it is
also recommended, especially at low tide, all mariners
navigate accordingly.
Starting
May 1st, you can contact the Pilots
Point Dock Office at
860-399-7906 or call on VHF 09 to get an up to the
minute report on the status of channel closings
and navigation
restrictions. Until then you can
call
860-227-7005.

purposes only and is not to be used for navigation.
