      Bahamas Chatter: Morgans Bluff Light

      Morgans Bluff Light
      Posted: 19 Apr 2016 05:30 AM PDT
      Charts AN 1 and AN 1A , page 63, Explorer Chartbook Near Bahamas, Seventh Edition show a Fl 4s 4m 4M (ED) light on Morgans Bluff that no longer exists. A new light has been established close to the point of the old water barge dock on a tall utility pole near 25° 10.8′ N/78° 01.6′ W. The white light currently flashes approximately once every 30 seconds and is approximately seven meters above sea level (Fl 33s 7m 5M).

      The lighted range shown on Joanne Point has been discontinued. The old metal towers still exist but can no longer be seen because of tree growth and are no longer lighted.
      The flashing five second red and green lights on the Commercial Harbour entrance jetties are currently working.
      Sixth Edition and older Chartbooks show buoys on the Morgans Bluff Channel that no longer exist.
      Mariners should stay well clear of the submerged and partially submerged wrecks near the south end of the old water barge dock.
