From here, you can either pass through Dog Bar Channel, which runs between Round Rock Shoal and the Gloucester Breakwater (20-foot depths, well marked), or if you are a bit skittish, you can travel around Round Rock Shoal to the west, and then make your course for Tenpound Island Ledge south of Gloucester. Tenpound Ledge is marked by red nun "6" at its southern end. From red nun "6," you will proceed northeastward to red nun "8," marking Mayflower Ledge, and then flashing green buoy "11"west of Rocky Neck. The Gloucester Entrance Channel has a width of 300 feet and 18.5-foot depths. Once you have entered the channel leading to Gloucester, set a course for red and green nun buoy "GH," which leads you into the middle of the South Channel and on to the Inner Harbor at green can "3."
