Many thanks all charts updated 

[grendel]

do these get automatically updated on for example Robins electronic navigation system, or would he need an update?

[LondonRascal]

Thanks for that - this is the sort of thing that happens all the time that is easy to miss, certainly why paper charts can rapidly become out of date electronic charts help so long as the updates to them get propagated quickly - it also where 'Crown Sourced' data like Active Captain comes in handy where people help others.

What worries me more is this - from 18th January:

"The Authority has been informed that Breydon Bridge at Great Yarmouth is currently not operational. The bridge cannot be lifted for vessels due to a traffic barrier suffering damage and breaking off during last night's high winds.

The bridge requires a new traffic barrier and it is estimated by Peel Ports that it will be at least a week before it is operational once again. An update with a more definitive time frame will be provided as soon as possible."
