COME IN FROM THE DIRECTION OF SMITH POINT LIGHT IF YOU DRAW OVER 4'.

RED DAYMARK 2LW IS 200 YARDS OFF THE MOUTH OF OUR RIVER- KEEP IT TO STARBOARD AS YOU PASS IT 

ENTER THE RIVER ENTRANCE BETWEEN RED MARKER 4 AND GREEN 5  AT THE SEAWARD ENDS OF THE ROCK JETTIES.  

The entrance channel was dredged in January 2014 and carries 8' MLW until you turn  into Slough Creek

AT GREEN 7 TURN HALF RIGHT.  FOLLOW THE CHANNEL TO THE RIGHT TO RED MARKER 8- KEEP RED 8 TO STARBOARD.

LEAVE GREEN MARKER 9 TO PORT. SLIGHTLY BEYOND AND TO THE LEFT OF MARKER 9 IS GREEN 1S, WHICH MARKS THE ENTRANCE TO SLOUGH CREEK. 

TURN LEFT 90 DEGREES, KEEP MARKER 1S TO PORT.  (IF YOU PASS GREEN MARKER 11, IN THE RIVER YOU HAVE GONE TOO FAR!)

ON ENTERING SLOUGH CREEK, (MLW 6')  LOOK FOR RED 2 - KEEP MARKER TO STARBOARD.

AFTER RED 2, THERE ARE THREE GREEN MARKERS WHICH DESCRIBE A LEFT HANDED FISH HOOK . KEEP MARKERS GREEN 3 ,   5 , AND BUOY 7 TO PORT - THE CHANNEL IS NARROW HERE AND COMES CLOSE TO THE OPPOSITE SHORE BUT HAS OVER 4.5' AT MEAN LOW WATER.  STAY HALF WAY BETWEEN THE MARKERS AND THE SHORE FOR THE DEEPEST WATER.

KEEP BUOY RED 8 TO STARBOARD AS YOU APPROACH THE FUEL DOCK.
