In these waters restrictions for sailing with fast
motorboats and waterskiing are in force.

WINTER-BUOYAGE 
From ± December-March buoyage may be replaced by winter-buoyage. 
In severe winters buoyage is withdrawn. Buoyage will be replaced 
in order of importance. In spring it is possible that not all 
channels are already buoyed as charted.

Due to strong currents the fairways are changing continuously.
Actual depth may differ from the charted soundings. The buoyage
is adjusted accordingly.
