Check out our tasty bakeries, choose from a fantastic range of beers, wines and spirits, pick up your 5 a day from our vast choice of fresh fruit

& vegetables, make it a dinner to impress with our succulent meat and poultry, pick up your daily newspaper, favourite magazine and hot food & drinks to go,

then make your way to the speedy Quick-Out Self Scan.

Its a shopping experience youll love!

DO:1) Check your engine and mechanical

equipment.

2) Check all emergency and lifesaving equipment, from harnesses to VHF. Are the batteries on your EPIRBs and personal locator beacons in date? Have your lifejackets and life rafts been serviced?

3) Check your rigging:

Standing rigging: If its more than 10 years old, your insurance company may not cover it and it might need to be replaced. Have it surveyed and be secure in the knowledge that it wont let you down.

Running rigging: Check for wear and chafe, particularly around wire-to-rope joints and Talurit splices.

4) Do you have an outboard? If you dont use it very often, have it serviced. If you left it down in the water through the winter it can easily foul up from the inside. Fuel can deteriorate if the outboard is not used often.

5) Check ares and make sure theyre in date. Think about buying one are every year. You will soon have a supply of working ares without having the expense of having to replace all your ares at once.

6) Check the condition of seacocks and other

through-hull ttings. If theyre not made of real bronze, they can degrade. Check for free movement, and make sure theyre absolutely secure. Its worth checking, if you still have the paperwork, whether they are made of real bronze or a cheaper material, which might fail.

7) Check your freshwater system. If it wasnt drained at the end of last season, pipework might have suffered.

8) Replace your anodes, even if they dont look worn. Depletion can take place out of sight. Boats left a oat in a marina can suffer quite rapid deterioration of metal ttings and anodes.

9) Check the anchor and cable, as these are often forgotten and sit in a nasty, damp locker. If you dont use your anchor often, the cable could be rusting away. Revitalise your depth markers, whether thats repainting them on to the chain, adding new cable ties, or refreshing your own method of marking the cable.

DONT:10) Dont think youre as prepared as you were

at the end of last season. Things have a habit of not working. Taking the time to do these checks now could mean you dont become a statistic this season.

Pre-season checklist

Guernsey Cruising Guide, Port and Customs Control 2015 05

Weve put together some useful information to help you safeguard yourself, your boat, and any passengers before and during any trip.

Safety equipment While it is certainly possible that you may never be in need of Safety Equipment, you will be thankful that you do in an emergency situation.

Essentials Life jackets should not be considered an optional extra in any situation. However, you should ensure that it is of the correct size for your body weight, tted properly and securely (preferably with a crotch strap or harness to prevent it riding over your head), and that it is regularly serviced to ensure it performs as expected.

It is also advised to have a throwable otation device, possibly attached to a long length of rope. This will greatly assist anyone who has fallen overboard. All passengers and crew should be aware of where the life jackets are and how to operate them in the event they do not automatically in ate.

While a mobile phone can be used to contact emergency services, a VHF radio is a far better device to ensure prompt assistance. A VHF radio is not as dependent on additional masts and antennas, and has a much greater range. It is also much easier to pinpoint the source, meaning the emergency services will know exactly where you are. The added bene t is that any calls made on Channel 16 can also be responded to by nearby boats that will quite likely be able to assist before the lifeboat arrives.

A torch along with spare batteries and a re extinguisher suitable for your type of boat, should also be considered essential safety items.

You should carry a detailed chart for the areas you are travelling in. Even if you do not understand everything on the chart, being able to work out your position and surrounding dangers is important.

Spare rope is something that can be useful in any situation. A couple of decent lengths can act as anything from additional mooring lines, a tow line, a throwable line to a man-over-board or repairs to damage.

Advisable It is also advisable to have the following safety equipment stored on board. This will almost certainly be useful in aiding a quick and safe resolution to any dangerous situations.

GPS - this provides a backup for navigation. Be aware though that it should not replace your charts, but act as additional con rmation of your location.

Flares - nothing will attract help faster and clearer than a are. Depending on how far you intend to travel from land it is advisable to at least carry hand-held ares and also parachute ares. They should be stored in a watertight container and regularly checked that they are not out of date. Any out of date ares can be disposed of by handing them over to the police.

Life Raft - in the event of an onboard re or if taking on water, you have the assurance that you and your crew will be safe until assistance arrives.

Grab Bag - it should be your last resort to abandon ship,

Be safe at sea

but if needs be, dont forget to take your grab bag, full of essentials to see you out until assistance arrives.

SART - Search and Rescue Transponders are used to locate a survival craft or distressed vessel by creating a series of dots on a rescuing ships radar display.

EPIRB - Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacons when manually activated, or automatically activated upon immersion, send out a distress signal. The 406 MHz beacon which transmits a digital signal, can be uniquely identi ed (via GEOSAR) which provides instantaneous identi cation of the registered user and its location.

Batteries - this applies to both handheld devices such as radios and torches; but also to larger items such as your bilge pump. A bilge pump is no use without any power, so consider a dual charging system to provide a backup, preferably with the batteries in two different locations on the boat.

Mobile Phone - these are very useful regardless of situation, but as with the GPS, it should not replace your VHF radio.

Tools - basic tools to allow simple repairs to an engine. Spare parts such as fuel lters, hosing and hull-bungs can prove invaluable.

Boat maintenance A thorough maintenance routine can prevent many rescue situations by ensuring that your boat and its equipment can perform to the best of their ability.

The two most important items that can go wrong on a boat are the engine and the bilge pump. Both quite likely

rely on the electrical system, which as a result of salt and damp is very susceptible to corrosion. This makes the electrical system a priority of boat maintenance.

All electrical lines and xings should be installed with the aim of keeping them as dry as possible. Any connections should be kept clean and protected with water-repellent, non-conductive grease or a corrosion inhibitor.

As mentioned, a dual-charging system or a spare battery kept charged up is also important.

After the electrical system, the motor is the most important as for many boats its the only means of power. You dont have to be a mechanic to ensure reliable operation. Regularly check the condition of hoses for both fuel and cooling systems as they are particularly vulnerable to extreme temperature changes throughout the year and can degrade and crack. A quick visual check of all the hoses can ensure that they havent begun to leak, or are likely to in the future. As long as an engine has a consistent supply of air, fuel through its hoses, a strong electrical supply and suitable cooling it will continue to run.

Fuel & Oil It goes without saying that ensuring oil levels are correct will keep the engine working well.

Topping off your fuel tanks before leaving the harbour is best, however if you cant do that, ensure you have enough fuel for the distance you intend to cover with enough extra to allow for any changes.

Guernsey Marinas Code of Practice

Wed like everyone to enjoy using our marinas and facilities and the following notes give an overview of our code of practice to ensure all users are aware of harbour guidelines.Pick up and drop off points

Guernsey Harbours provides areas for local boat owners to pick up or drop off friends and family members when the marinas are not tidally accessible.

The swan pontoons in the pool area are available throughout the year and local boat owners may use the west side of the walk-ashore to drop off and pick up guests. When space allows, vessels may be moored for up to one tide free of charge. Please note that during low Spring tides the area is very shallow. Please ask the marina staff for any assistance if necessary.

From time to time, especially during July and August, capacity may be at its maximum and the swan pontoons may be unavailable to all non-visiting boats. The marina staff will advise that they

must give priority to visiting yachtsmen during exceptionally busy times.

The Cambridge Steps are available during most states of the tide and provide easy access ashore. Boats should not be left unattended, it is for the safe and quick transfer of people and not for any other use.

Layby areas

For those wishing to use local layby areas for more than one tide, the swan pontoons are available to local boat owners for a small charge.

The local layby pontoon in the pool area is designed for short stays and can be used by local boat owners free of charge. A tender is required to access the shore. Please note the marina attendants are not licensed to take passengers on the harbour dories.

Fuel

It is strictly forbidden to refuel in the marinas or anywhere else in the harbour except at a designated fuelling berth. Fuel (diesel and petrol) is available from the Boatworks+ berth at the Castle Emplacement (accessible

16

approximately half tide up to half tide down dependent upon draught) and in the QEII Marina.

All petrol should be stored in metal containers.

Place adequate re- ghting equipment in position to deal with engine and cooking appliance res.

The use of barbecues is strictly forbidden in the marinas and in the pool area.

Tenders

Please do not leave tenders on any steps, gangways or pontoons as they may seriously impede other users or emergency access points. In the interest of safety, tenders should not be used in the marinas unnecessarily.

Moorings and berths

The mooring or berth designated to you and detailed in your mooring agreement is for your vessel only. Please do not lease your berth or mooring for another vessel to use without permission from Guernsey Harbours.

Please do not use any other mooring or berth not designated for your vessel, or lay alongside piers, jetties or ships without prior permission of Guernsey Harbours.

Safety

Swimming and diving is not permitted in any part of the harbour, including the marinas.

Holding tanks should not be emptied in the marinas or harbour and where possible please avoid using on-board toilets when moored in the marinas or pool area.

Water

Water is available on the pontoons but only for thepurpose of washing down boats if no island wide restrictions are in place. Hosepipes are no longer available and boat owners are requested to use their own hoses.

Refuse disposal

Waste bins and recycling points are provided near all marina gangways. DO NOT throw rubbish into the harbour or leave it on the pontoons: as well as being unpleasant, it is also an offence.


All general chandlery stocked. Large range of marine electronics, leisure clothing, Imray charts and books, water sports equipment, Hanson Fleming flares. We are well stocked for all your boating needs.

The Beaufort Scale is used throughout the marine world and has developed over many years since it was rst devised by Admiral Francis Beaufort in 1806. It is de ned for seamen in terms of sea state with emphasis on the observed effect of the wind, rather than the actual wind speed. Wave heights in the scale are for conditions in the open sea, not along the shore.

Beaufort Scale


Speed limits from four to six knots are in force in St Peter Port and St Sampsons harbours. A speed limit of six knots is in force in most of the bays around the coast of Guernsey and in the approaches to Herm and Jethou. There is also a speed limit of six knots off most of the bathing beaches in Herm and at Rosaire anchorage.

Speed Limits

Live round ring

Keep clear of the Fort Le Plomb ring range when the red ags are ying. On the day of ring, navigational warnings are broadcast by Guernsey Coastguard on Channel 20. Dates of live round ring and other navigational warnings can be found online at www.guernseyharbours.gov.gg

The Humps and Brehon Tower

Boat owners are requested not to land on the Humps and to avoid the immediate vicinity between the 1st January and 31st July inclusive. These restrictions are necessary to protect the important breeding seabird colonies on these islets, which lie to the north-west of Herm.

Boat owners, including kayaks etc, are also asked not to land at Brehon Tower at any time of the year. The interior of the tower is in an extremely dangerous condition and for safety reasons the public are advised to stay clear of this area.

All speedboats must be registered

with Guernsey Harbours and must

display registration numbers at the

stern of the boat.

All speedboats must have third

party insurance cover of not less

than 1,000,000.

It is an offence to exceed a speed of

six knots within the restricted areas

as indicated on the plan except

where a permit has been issued.

20

Water-skiingPermits are issued by Guernsey Harbours for water-skiing. The boat must have adequate insurance cover and at least two people are in the boat while towing a water-skier in order to ensure that a proper lookout is maintained at all times.

The bays concerned are also popular areas for swimmers and every care should be taken to avoid accidents. Permit holders should inspect the area before commencing water-skiing and should note the presence of any swimmers, particularly those who are not close inshore.

Areas of coastal restricted zones in which the speed limit may be exceeded for the purpose of water-skiing, subject to permission from Guernsey Harbours are:

Havelet Bay. So much of the coastal restricted zone as lies east of a line joining Oyster Rock and Moulinet Beacon and south of a line from Horseshoe Pool to Moulinet Beacon.

Soldiers Bay (Petit Fort).

Moulin Huet. Much of the coastal restricted zone as lies south of a line joining the Cannon Rock, the Dog and Lion Rocks and the rocks south of Bon Port.

La Bette. Much of the coastal restricted zone as lies in and south-west of La Bette Bay.

Shell Beach - Herm. Much of the coastal restricted zone as lies to the north of a line bearing 270 (T) from the northernmost part of North Jacquets Rock to Shell Beach, to include Mouissoniere Bay.

PLEASE FIND BELOW A MAP SHOWING RESTRICTED ZONES AROUND HERM. The shaded areas are those in which the speed limit is restricted to a maximum of six knots.

Guernsey Coastguard maintains a 24/7 all year round listening watch on VHF channels 16 and 20. Other channels are available but in the rst instance for routine traf c, the main working channel is VHF Channel 20.

Port Control (located at the pierheads) also operates 24/7 on VHF Channel 12. It is primarily for commercial traf c requesting permission to enter and leave the ports of both St Peter Port and St Sampson and for any vessel over 15 metres in length.

Channel 12: This is used for commercial movements within the harbour and should be monitored when entering and exiting the harbour. However, if you wish to make contact with Guernsey Coastguard it should be on Channel 20, and not Channel 12.

Channel 16: This channel should be used for emergency purposes only. Using this channel allows emergency services to pinpoint your location by communicating with other radio stations.

Channel 20: This is the normal working channel of Guernsey Coastguard and should be used to communicate all arrival and departure messages. It is preferable to mention your intentions, the number of people aboard and when you expect to return.

USEFUL INFORMATION

36

Guernsey may geographically be closer to France but it remains loyal to the British crown, and has done since Norman times. With evidence dating from the Neolithic period, the island has been pivotal in battles between the UK and France as well as being an important port for international imports into the UK. Today the island is independent and self-governing.

Guernsey is part of the southernmost group of islands that make up the British Isles. They sit in the Bay of St Malo, less than 30 miles from the French coast.

The Channel Islands enjoy more sunshine hours each year than the UK. As a result, a variety of plants and owers thrive in our parks and gardens that may not survive the harsh winters in Britain.

With its milder climate, islanders make the most of the outdoors and, with beautiful beaches and cliff paths, island-hopping to its neighbouring islands and eating al fresco during the summer months.

Guernseys independent status means it has been able to foster a favourable tax climate. This has led to many offshore banks, fund managers and insurance companies establishing of ces here. While the traditional industries of ower growing, shing and dairy farming have largely been overtaken by the nance industry, each still plays an important part, contributing both to the varied economy and to the islands character.

Port ControlCustoms and immigration

Immediately upon arrival, before any crew member goes ashore, masters of all vessels arriving in Guernsey must complete the Customs and Immigration declaration given to them by the marina attendants. Completed forms must be placed in one of the yellow Customs boxes or returned to a duty Customs of cial a oat. In addition, vessels arriving from any port outside the Bailiwick of Guernsey must display a Q ag on entry. All persons on board vessels arriving from places other than the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man, Jersey or the other islands of the Bailiwick must be in possession of a valid travel document.

Arrival

All visiting yachtsmen are met on arrival by a member of the marina staff who will provide assistance and a suitable berth for your vessel. All visiting vessels must clear inwards at the main harbour of St Peter Port, regardless of which marina they moor in. Mooring in the QEII Marina is by prior arrangement only.

The marina staff are there to ensure the safety of all our customers and they will recommend a berth suitable for your boat. Please advise the staff how long you intend to stay when you arrive. We can take payment alongside and accept cash, debit and credit cards (small charge for credit card payments).

Port entry and exit

Commercial vessels are severely constrained whilst manoeuvring within the harbour and therefore smaller craft are requested to keep well clear. A red light at the pier head, one on the south end of the New Jetty and one on the Inter-island Quay indicate that large vessels are under way and prohibit entry and exit of others except small boats of 15m or less under power, which may proceed keeping well clear. It is also good practice to listen out on the VHF Channel 12 for commercial traf c movement. The marinas are illustrated on the map on page 36.
