Tide returning from a low ebb, which exposed the sand bank and the rocks to the east of Albert Pier (completed in 1847); it will be interesting to see just how Scillonian IV gets in to the new quay over those rocks. It will also be interesting to see the insurance claims from berthed yachts that have their hulls damaged, as they settle on these rocks and weed. Bear in mind that the width of the rocky area is half the width of the proposed marina. The tide can lower by 3 or 4 feet below this.
