1209.0. "Need Martha's Vineyard Chart" by GERBIL::PACL () Wed May 17 1989 11:51

    I need to find a chart covering Lagoon Pond (just south of 
    Vineyard Haven, Martha's Vineyard, MA).  I have charts covering
    the coast which provide no detail on the pond.  Does anyone know
    whether there is such a chart (or even better have one that I could
    copy until getting my own)?  
    
    I'm using a mooring there and have been told that it gets pretty 
    shallow.  My Catalina 30 draws 4'+ and I prefer avoiding problems.

    I've brought boats in there and have windsurfed there extensively  over
    the years.  It is only shallow if you go outside the the marked buoys. 
    One of them marks a sand bar that extends more than half way across the
    lagoon (it's only 1 ft deep at low tide!).  THe channel on both sides
    of the draw bridge should be faithfully honored as it does get very
    shallow immediately outside the marked area.

    You  need the Small Craft folio chart: #13229SC (South Coast of Cape Cod
    and Buzzards Bay) Page C.
    
    I'm not sure if this chart is readily available right now. It may be
    out of print. I can make a copy for you if you like.
