It was previously reported (see report here) that there were two navigation hazards in the harbour entrance. Jolly Harbour has removed the spud which was broken off by a barge. This obstruction was marked with buoys.

Jolly Harbour has searched for the second mentioned obstruction but has been unable to find any evidence of it.

All boats are requested to use the clearly marked channel.

Both hazards were outside of the marked channel.

At the outer head of the channel Jolly Harbour has placed a red and white cylindrical buoy as a Fairway marker. This marker was lit at night but the light has been stolen. It is being replaced as soon as possible and anyone who has any information about the theft please contact the Marina Office on (268) 462 6042.
