DESCRIPTION. Parvin Sound separates North and South Douglas Is. There are two areas within the sound where visitors can moor, either S. Anthony’s Bay or one of the two mooring buoys off Murray Village. Good shelter within S. Anthony’s Bay except in strong N’ly winds when it would be preferable to use the V buoys at Murray. Visitors may berth at S. Anthony’s pierhead (least depth 2.5m) for a maximum of 1 hour. Vessels must clear the berth if the workboat from Synka Oil Terminal arrives. The causeway across the sound to the E of Murray Village effectively shuts Parvin Sound off from the main Farlow Channel.
APPROACH WAYPOINT. 46°12’.99N 005°50’.38W.
TIDAL STREAMS AND HEIGHTS. The stream at the entrance to the bay attains 1.5kn at springs. At both sets of moorings the stream is virtually negligible. Access to moorings at all states of the tide.
LIGHTS AND MARKS. The two (occas) F.R ldg lts are lit only when the workboat from Synka is entering or leaving the sound. An SH bn [Q.G] marks the end of the rocky ledge which extends to the E of Node Point. On the western side of the bay, the pier is lit with 2F.G (vert). In Parvin Sound the PHM [Fl.R.2·5s] and the SHM [Fl.G.2s4m5M] are the only lit marks.
VHF RADIO. None. FACILITIES. FW tap, P & D (cans), Bar.
PILOTAGE NOTES. S. Anthony’s Bay. From Parvin PHM S of Hinder I. [Fl.R.2·5s], a bearing of 116° will identify the conspic but unlit Saints Rock IDM that will be left to port when entering the bay. Murray. The approach to the moorings from the lit [Fl.G.2s4m5M] (G ▲ on G pyramidal twr) bn is straightforward having established safe clearance beneath the 14m cables. Beware of the unlit PHM, Murray, at the entrance to the bay.
