BA: Staniel Cay - Shallow Rocky Bar
- Date Reported: Feb 4, 2022
- Reporter: Jason Spitz
- Source: User
- Description:
In the first 3 days of February 2022, we witnessed or heard on the VHF 3 separate boats get stuck on the rocky bar, all which required towing Assistance to pull them off. Parts of this dangerous bar sits just underwater. One catamaran that hit was going at substantial speed. Watch your channels and charts closely here. There is plenty of water in the channels. The many moorings installed by SCYC can make entry and exit confusing by using visual only, although it is prudent to use VPR here as well.
- Lat / Lon: N 24° 10.344' / W 076° 26.812'
