There are no markers. It’s harder to see the proper opening coming from outside verses exiting the sound. The area is considered off limits. I would enter through the North sound and the marked channel. G Please clarify : "There are no markers". Passing by Saba, the Channel is well marked. Also there is a well marked cut going through the reef on the Eastern area, as shown on the map posted by "Virgin Gorda Resident". There are no channel markers between Prickly Pear Island and Eustatia Island. The deep draft entrance is not marked. It’s also not easy to see depending on wind and waves. Look at the chart in the original post and you will see where he marked the deep entrance. I recommended they use the N sound entrance because it’s well marked and will carry 5’9” draft boats. Regardless of the markings I believe Eustatia sound is off limits to all or most charter companies.
