Useful waypoints
OK, here's a few wayoints that will be of use during this poker run.
As always, choice of route along with all navigational decisions are down to the skipper on the day, but these positions, some permanent navigational marks, some just waypoints, form a route that I think keeps you safely away from danger.
Cutting corners off from the published route is your prerogative, but I wouldn't advise doing it without checking your charts and being very comfortable with your choice of route combined with the tidal height on the day.

i know it werent lemon drizz ya nob, I just said......... it happens to be my fave; so when young Mary (?) is bakin' us up some grub, she'll know what my preferences are.
And I didnee muck Ang about, truth be known I think she was after picking me up and getting half hours decent (and by decent i mean an actual 2 way) conversation, coz I reckon those kind are in particularly short supply down at ginger towers.
So how many runners and riders do we have?

It's not a stupid question at all. And, you've brought to light a typo on the pdf, so thanks.
the waypoints in the list marked 'B/Y Cardinal' mean that at that position there is a Cardinal mark (navigational bouy) that is coloured Black & Yellow.
