South of the Lower Ferry there is a mixture of private and Dart Harbour moorings on the western side of the river. Royal Dart Yacht Club (RDYC) moorings are on the eastern side of the river. Once on course towards Bayards light (fig. 3) keep in the white sector and this will keep you on the starboard side of the channel. When exiting the river on this leg you should run on the WRG sectored light just to the north of Kettle Point on the Kingswear (eastern side of the channel) - fig. 4.
