Stoke Gabriel
Entering Stoke Gabriel Creek Slowly approach the green, starboard-hand mark on the right of the picture (Fig 14), the Stoney Ground Beacon.
On it is a tide gauge calibrated to local Chart Datum, graduated at 0.2m intervals with the 5m, 4m, 3m and 2m levels indicated by numbers. If the water level is below 2m and your craft draws 1.2m or more, do not enter the creek on a falling tide but instead use the orange, low water landing pontoon at Mill Point, 100m to the west of the beacon.
Otherwise, depending on the draft of your vessel, steer to pass about 5m off the two red, port-hand marks on a bearing of 325°. At the second of these, turn 25° to starboard and proceed parallel to the shoreline for 100m.
At this point you will notice a thin white post on your left at the bottom of the cliff. It is the outer mark of a transit mark.
Turn 60° to starboard and follow the course indicated by the back transit shown by the two white vertical lines.
You should now be heading towards the extreme right-hand end of the houses visible beyond the Mill Pool.
In about 60m, when the near corner of the pontoon hammerhead is in line with the left-hand end of the top of the pontoon adjoining the quay, turn to port towards the end of the pontoon and berth on the outer end marked “Short Stay Only”.
Village Pontoon 2m Height of tide required for 1.2m draught vessel
Do not berth on the eastern side of the pontoon as this is reserved for the ferry service to Dittisham and for collecting or dropping off crew.
