Permitted draught is the limit the sailing directions publish for entering; quay depth is the register's figure for the deepest quay — other quays may be shallower. Neither guarantees a berth that suits your boat.

Sailing directions

Based on a published sailing directions guide

Sõidugraafiku järgi liikuval parvlaeval on alati sadamasse sisenemise ja sealt väljumise eesõigus. Muude laevade üheaegsel sadamasse sisse- ja väljasõidul kehtib sadamast väljuva laeva eesõigus, v.a juhul kui tegu on hädaolukorraga. Väikelaevad ei tohi sõita kaidele või kai ääres seisvatele laevadele lähemale kui 30 m, v.a juhul kui nad ise silduvad laev peab liikuma minimaalse kiirusega, mille puhul ta säilitab juhitavuse. Laevade liikumine on lubatud ainult kooskõlastatult sadamakapteni teenistusega. Väikelaevad peavad laevade lähenemisel hoiduma telgjoonest nii kaugele, kui seda võimaldab nende endi meresõiduohutus. Vessel movements: laeva ümberpaigutamine on lubatud üksnes sadamakapteni teenistuse loal; laeva ümberpaigutamisel on lootsimine kohustuslik, v.a haalamisel. Entry and departure ban: s- ja N-tuule kiirusel üle 20 m/s; parvlaevad tuule kiirusel üle 25 m/s.[2]
