If you are in charge of a large private/ recreational vessel of 30 metres LOA and above, you should give notice on VHF channel 69 to ‘All ships in Cowes Harbour’ as follows: Inbound: Prior to entering the main fairway, passing Shepards Wharf Marina and passing the Folly Inn. Outbound: When departing a berth, passing the Folly, passing Kingston Wharves and when approaching the chain ferry.
Vessels over 30m in length will make announcements on VHF Ch 69 at selected reporting points which include approaching the harbour, the chain ferry, and prior to departing berths. Such vessels shall also sound one prolonged blast on the whistle when approaching the chain ferry from the north or south. All vessels are strongly recommended to maintain a listening watch on VHF Ch69. There are frequent ferry movements in the harbour and its approaches. Red Jet passenger vessels are half hourly, they exhibit a flashing yellow light when underway and swing to starboard after one short blast, using much of the fairway, prior to mooring at the Jubilee Pontoon adjacent to the Town Quay. Vessels should therefore avoid passing down the starboard side of the Red Jets when they approach the Jubilee Pontoon.
Any vessel over 20 metres LOA intending to pass the chain ferry should establish contact call sign “Cowes Chain Ferry” and agree on VHF channel 69 on which side the chain ferry will hold for your passage. In addition all vessels are strongly recommended to monitor this channel. Such vessels should also sound one prolonged blast on the whistle when approaching the chain ferry from the north or south. See Local Notice to Mariners on page 44 and Rule 9 of the Collision Regulations.
The car ferries berth is between the Union Jack shed and the chain ferry on the East Cowes side. Red Funnel car ferries, Red Jets and cargo vessels can only safely navigate within the fairway. Rule 9 of the Collision Regulations must be followed.
SPEED LIMITS AND WASH The speed limit in the harbour is 6 knots and the Harbour Master and his crew take particular care to ensure this limit is enforced at all times. Please be conscious that 6 knots is the limit and not a `target’. You should always proceed in a manner which shall not endanger the safety of other vessels, boats or property. This is particularly the case with wash and its effects upon others in close vicinity, especially craft moored up on pontoons or mooring buoys. Small vessels may well be embarking or disembarking passengers and be particularly vulnerable. 12
