Download Dangerous Areas - Rocks

Dear LBC Rowers,
Please take few minutes to look at the pictures attached which indicate areas where it is unsafe to row due to the presence of
submerged rocks.
Even when it is high tide, some rocks may be only a few cm under the water and can be dangerous.
Pic 1 (general) and 2:
• Rocks at the south of the bay headland: Those are visible at low tide, but barely submerged at high tide. Please keep 50
mt distance from the headland.
• Disney Rocks (sand area): It should not be approached or used to change position of the crew. In that area the Ferries go at
full speed and the wake that they make are fast and high.
• Disney Channel: it is not suitable for rowing even at high tide, especially with a non-coxed boat. Do not enter it!
• She Pak Wan: this area is full of rocks that at high tide are barely covered by the water. It is very dangerous, so please stay
clear of it.
Pic 1 (general) and 3):
• South of Peng Chau: there are a few submerged rocks where the fishing boats are moored. Please keep at least 50 mt clear
of the coastline.
• Little island at SE of Peng Chau: Rowers cannot go between the PC and this little Island. It is not optional!
Pic 4:
• Sunshine Island: if going around SSI be aware of a rock formation in the channel. The position that I marked is very
approximative. So please row with caution in that area.
