      Note: If you have CYC charts (paper or electronic), be aware that the Anegada entrance channel as charted on the CYC charts is incorrect.  The channel shown on those charts is the entrance channel prior to 1992.  In 1992, new channel markers were placed and the channel was set slightly farther to the southeast. Click here for a snippet from the CYC chart showing the correct Anegada entrance channel.

      Note: If you have Garmin BlueChart electronic charts, be aware that the Anegada entrance channel as charted on the Garmin BlueCharts is incorrect. That segment of the BlueChart is derived from British Admiralty chart #2008, which is out of date for its survey of the Anegada entrance channel. Click here for a snippet from the Garmin BlueChart showing the correct Anegada entrance channel.
