Irakleio Radio has now printed an official NAVWARN against a two-day firing-practice activation in the Saronic Gulf, not a reprint of Saturday night’s dedicated NAVWARN 1343/26 Fournoi firing box and not a second Drapano FORACS file. The working primary retrieved this run is official Irakleio Radio NAVWARN 1409/26, broadcast as ZCZC HA13 061054 UTC NOV 26: SARONIKOS GULF. EXTENSION OF ACTIVATION OF FIRING PRACTICE AREA ‘PLATEIA’ ON 09 NOV 26 0400 UTC UNTIL 1700 UTC, AND ON 16 NOV 26 0400 UTC UNTIL 1700 UTC FIRNG EXERCISES IN AREA BOUNDED BY: 37-47.00N 023-17.00E / 37-52.00N 023-22.00E / 37-50.00N 023-26.00E / 37-44.00N 023-22.00E. AVOID CROSSING ABOVE AREA. CANCEL THIS MSG ON 16 NOV 26 1800 UTC. Official wording keeps FIRNG and the quoted range name PLATEIA. That is Sunday morning’s working Saronic coastal instrument. It is a four-corner Saronic box with two discrete 0400–1700 UTC days, not a rewrite of dedicated 1343/26, not a rewrite of dedicated 1342/26, and not this morning’s dedicated Kerkyra 201/26 Zakynthos serial.
The warning is an Irakleio Radio NAVTEX. It is not NAVAREA III 0169/26. It is not NAVAREA IX 433/26. It is not UKMTO 198-26. Friday afternoon’s dedicated IMO board remains 129 confirmed incidents as at 6 November, with 25 seafarer fatalities. Masters who brief Sunday morning as a Piraeus or Aegina port closure, as Saturday night’s Fournoi firing reprinted west of 024 E, as dedicated 1342/26’s Drapano FORACS box pulled into the Saronic, or as this morning’s dedicated 201/26 Zakynthos box filed again will have over-read a timed Saronic firing prohibition. 1409/26 tells the bridge which gulf, which four points, which two days and which 0400–1700 UTC window to plot. It does not print a keep-clear radius outside the polygon, a VHF working channel, a hull, an IMO number, a RAM line, a weapon class, or a NOTAM number. Hold the official wording, including “extension of activation,” “firing practice area,” “FIRNG exercises,” “avoid crossing above area,” and the printed 16 November 1800 UTC cancel.
Saturday night held 1409/26 as wrap on dedicated 1343/26, unused as dedicated. Sunday morning converts it. The official English body has not moved. The four corners have not moved. The 9 and 16 November dates have not moved. The 0400–1700 UTC hours have not moved. The cancel remains 1800 UTC 16 November. What changed is the desk: 1343/26’s Fournoi box is still live this morning through 1500Z 8 November, and 1409/26’s first Plateia day opens at 0400 UTC tomorrow. That is a later primary on a later Saronic clock, not a 1343 amendment.
What 1409/26 actually printed
The hydrographic text is short and is the working primary. Saronikos Gulf. Extension of activation of firing practice area ‘Plateia’ on 9 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC, and on 16 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC. FIRNG exercises in the area bounded by the four points listed above. Avoid crossing above area. Cancel this message on 16 November 2026 1800 UTC. Stay with that wording. Irakleio printed a gulf name. It printed an extension-of-activation sentence. It printed a range name. It printed two calendar days. It printed a 13-hour window on each of those days. It printed four coordinates. It printed avoid crossing. It printed a cancel DTG. It did not print a hull name. It did not print an IMO number, an MMSI, a flag, a call sign, a wreck buoy, a least depth, a fishing or anchoring prohibition outside the box, a restricted-in-ability-to-manoeuvre line, a VHF channel, a missile or gunnery class, or a harbour-master closure. Do not invent a five-cable or one-nautical-mile halo around the polygon. 1409/26 does not print one. Do not invent a 9–16 November shutdown. The notice prints 9 November and 16 November, not the week between. Do not invent an 8 November day. That window belongs to dedicated 1343/26’s Fournoi firing, not to this Plateia box. Do not invent a 0630–0730 UTC overlay. That hour belongs to this morning’s dedicated Kerkyra 201/26, not to this Saronic serial.
The geometry is the first briefing fact. The four-point box sits in the Saronic Gulf west of Aegina, on the approaches west of the Piraeus / Saronic inshore. North-west corner 37-47.00N 023-17.00E. North-east corner 37-52.00N 023-22.00E. South-east corner 37-50.00N 023-26.00E. South-west corner 37-44.00N 023-22.00E. That is on the order of 8 nautical miles north–south by 8 nautical miles east–west, not a circular exclusion, not a TSS amendment, not Saturday night’s dedicated ~0.6-by-0.9-nautical-mile Fournoi box, and not this morning’s dedicated ~45-by-50-nautical-mile Zakynthos box. The Piraeus west-about, the Aegina west face, the Methana / Poros approaches and the Saronic coastal all see a corner. Do not brief a Piraeus shutdown from an eight-nautical-mile range. Do not brief a Corinth Canal rewrite. Plot the four points. Stay out of the polygon from 0400 UTC to 1700 UTC on 9 November and again on 16 November. Do not assume the other days in that week, or the night hours on those two days, are a printed all-clear for other hazards; the prohibition is the printed windows, not 10–15 November and not 1700–0400 UTC, unless a later NAVWARN says otherwise.
The date line is the second briefing fact. Work is printed as on 9 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC, and on 16 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC. No third day is printed. No weather clause is printed. No 10–15 November extension is printed. Sunday morning is 8 November. The first prohibited hour is still 0400 UTC on 9 November. A passage plan that treats 8 November as already closed in the Saronic has under-read a box that opens tomorrow morning. A passage plan that treats 9–16 November as closed around the clock has over-read two discrete days into an eight-day shutdown. A passage plan that carries the watch through 13 November because “Greek firing is a five-day Drapano series” has borrowed dedicated 1342/26’s dates and dropped Plateia’s 16 November second day. 1409/26 is a numbered radio alert. It lives from 0400 UTC on 9 November through 1800 UTC on 16 November unless a later Irakleio NAVWARN cancels or amends it. 0400 UTC in November is 0600 Eastern European Time. Do not invent a 0630–0730 UTC Ionian window on this box.
The instruction line is the third briefing fact. Avoid crossing above area. That is the same keep-out sentence as Saturday night’s dedicated 1343/26 and as this morning’s dedicated 201/26. It is a firing-exercise sentence. It is not dedicated 1342/26’s “crossing above this area is prohibited” on a FORACS-checks body. FIRNG exercises, official spelling, are the printed reason. Irakleio did not print “missile,” “gunnery,” “torpedo,” or “submarine” beyond the FIRNG line. Do not convert a Saronic Plateia box into dedicated 1343/26’s Fournoi firing because both print avoid crossing. Do not convert it into this morning’s dedicated 201/26 Zakynthos serial because both open on 9 November. Give the four points, the two days and the 0400–1700 UTC window. Stay out of the polygon in those hours. Do not occupy 37-48 N, 023-22 E at 1000 UTC on 9 November because “Piraeus pilots are working.”
Official-board colour, held separately: Irakleio Radio’s 071710 UTC 7 November in-force summary lists 1408, 1407, 1411, 1404 and 1403 among the 2026 numbers and does not print 1409 on that summary line. The HA13 061054 UTC body remains on the Hydrographic Service’s English NAVTEX archive with cancel 16 November 2026 1800 UTC. Industry coastal reprints still carry the same four corners, the same two days and the same 0400–1700 UTC hours as scheduled from 9 November. Hold the HA13 body as the working primary. Do not treat the 071710 summary omission as a printed cancel. Do not invent an 8 November withdrawal. A later Irakleio summary that drops 1409 after 9 November, or a later NAVWARN that amends the corners or the hours, is the product that would move this file. Sunday morning has not retrieved that product.
What this is not, and the 8–16 November Greek firing tape
This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVWARN 1343/26. Saturday night’s dedicated piece remains: SAMOS SEA. FOURNOI ISLANDS. FIRING EXERCISES. From 080600Z to 081500Z 8 November 2026. Four-point box around 37-32 N 026-30 E. Avoid crossing above area. Official Irakleio 1408/26 reprints that box with cancel 081600 UTC 8 November. That polygon sits in the Samos Sea, about three degrees east of 1409/26’s east wall. 8 November is the day before 1409/26 opens. Saturday night correctly held 1409/26 as wrap on that Fournoi file. Sunday morning does not collapse Plateia onto Fournoi. A DPA who briefs Sunday morning as “Fournoi has moved west onto Plateia” has borrowed 1343/26’s one-day window and dropped the Saronic serial. Keep those numbers on their own sheets. 1343/26 still kills at 1500Z on 8 November, with Irakleio 1408/26’s NAVTEX kill at 1600 UTC. 1409/26 opens at 0400 UTC on 9 November.
This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVWARN 1342/26. Saturday morning’s dedicated piece remains: CRETAN SEA. CRETE ISLAND. DRAPANO POINT. Prohibition of crossing boats due to FORACS checks. From 9 until 13 November 2026. From 0600Z until 1600Z of each day. Eight-point box around 35-27 N 024-20 E. Crossing above this area is prohibited. That box sits off north Crete. 1409/26 prints Plateia, a four-point Saronic box, FIRNG exercises, and 0400–1700 UTC on 9 and 16 November only. 9 November is shared. 10–13 November is not. 16 November is Plateia’s second day and is after 1342/26’s last FORACS morning. A DPA who briefs Sunday morning as “Drapano FORACS has moved north onto Plateia” has borrowed 1342/26’s five-day window and dropped the FIRNG sentence. Keep those numbers on their own sheets. 1342/26 still occupies 0600Z–1600Z each day through 13 November. 1409/26 occupies 0400–1700 UTC on 9 November and again on 16 November, and kills at 1800 UTC 16 November. A master shaping 9 November may owe both: Drapano by day on the Cretan Sea, and Plateia through 1700 UTC in the Saronic. They are not the same product.
This is not this morning’s dedicated Kerkyra 201/26, and it is not a Zakynthos firing filed again. This morning’s other dedicated file remains: IONIAN SEA, activation of firing practice area ‘Zakynthos’, live firing exercises CARREID out by Slovenian Air Force from 9 until 13 November 2026 from 0630 UTC until 0730 UTC, and on 9, 10 and 12 November from 0930 UTC until 1045 UTC, and on 11 November from 1045 UTC until 1200 UTC, four corners around 37-20 N 020-30 E, avoid crossing, cancel 130830 UTC 13 November. That is a five-day Ionian firing west of 021 E. 1409/26 is a two-day Saronic firing east of 023 E. Do not brief Sunday morning as “Zakynthos extended onto Plateia.” Do not invent a 9–13 November overlay on 1409/26 because 201/26 prints one. Do not invent a Slovenian Air Force user on 1409/26. Carry both on 9 November. They are two products, two seas, two hour groups.
This is not Saturday afternoon’s dedicated Irakleio 1411/26, and it is not Abeille Marengo. Saturday afternoon’s dedicated piece remains: EAST CRETAN SEA / SOUTHEAST CRETAN SEA / EAST MEDITERRANEAN SEA, research operation for underwater cable installation by ‘ABEILLE MARENGO’ from 6 November 2026 until 6 March 2027, 21-point line, wide berth requested 2 NM, cancel 062200 UTC 6 March 2027. 1409/26 names neither Abeille Marengo nor a cable track. A two-day Saronic firing is not a four-month east-Med cable. Do not collapse them because both sit on the Irakleio board. NAVAREA III 0171/26 remains wrap on dedicated 1411/26, unused as a second Abeille Marengo piece. Official Cyprus 345/26 remains unused as dedicated.
This is not dedicated NAVWARN 1336/26, and it is not NG SURVEYOR renamed. Wednesday morning’s dedicated piece remains: SOUTH AIGAIO SEA, geophysical survey by ‘NG SURVEYOR from 5 November 2026, 21-point line from 37-45.18 N 023-07.12 E to 37-14.38 N 025-40.47 E, wide berth requested, no printed end. Official Irakleio 1403/26 reprints that survey with a 1 NM safety distance. 1336/26’s first points sit on the order of 37-45 N 023-07 E, west of 1409/26’s west wall at 023-17 E. A survey line and a firing box can occupy the same Saronic morning without becoming the same product. Do not brief Sunday morning as “NG SURVEYOR has become a Plateia firing.” Do not apply 1409/26’s 0400–1700 UTC window to 1336/26. Do not apply 1336/26’s missing end date to 1409/26. Official HNHS 1338/2026 Maroneia NE mole-head red light 40 52 36N 025 30 26E UNLIT, 1339/2026 Vistonikos Bay Imeros Port east mole-head red light 40 56 00N 025 21 40E UNLIT, and 1351/2026 Amvrakikos Gulf Amfilochia Bay Agios Georgios Point flashing green light 38 53 34N 021 09 04E UNLIT remain unused as dedicated. Official 1345/2026 Tragonisi semisunk wreck, 1347/2026 Chalkida lightbuoy cut off and unlit, and 1350/2026 Nea Moudania light unlit remain wrap.
This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVAREA III 0169/26. Monday 4 November’s dedicated piece remains oceanographic work on the Britoil Centurion, IMO 9619177, MMSI 566921000, days 5 November 2026 to 15 February 2027, dotted-line groups A and B in the Central Mediterranean, wide receipt requested. 0169/26 prints a different hull, a different sea, a different point-group and a 15 February end. 1409/26 prints no hull, Saronikos Gulf, a four-point box, and a 16 November last hour. Dedicated 0168/26 remains weekly group 44 through 092359 UTC 9 November and still does not print 1409. A Greek coastal NAVWARN does not belong on a Spanish weekly wrapper. The 0168/26 cancel at 092359 UTC sits the evening of 1409/26’s first day; those are two clocks on two products, not a merged all-clear for the Saronic. NAVAREA III 0170/26 remains unused as dedicated pending retrieval of the English body; it is not a 1409 rewrite.
This is not last night’s dedicated UKMTO 198-26, not Friday night’s dedicated 197-26, not Friday night’s dedicated NAVAREA IX 432/26, and not Saturday afternoon’s dedicated 799/26. 198-26 remains a 7 November Advisory, bulk carrier and military forces, 18 nautical miles east of Khor Fakkan, incident time TBC. 197-26 remains the tanker waterline explosion 16 NM east of Khasab. 432/26 remains the partially submerged container at 25-09.71N 054-54.06E, cancel 082359 UTC 8 November — still in force at this 0330 UTC desk; past later today. 799/26 remains the Varna port-and-road windows on 10 and 13 November. IMO remains 129 confirmed / 25 dead as at 6 November. A Saronic firing box does not belong on that tape.
Operational implications
For a master already shaping a Piraeus, Aegina, Methana, Poros, west-Saronic or Corinth-approaches passage on 9 or 16 November, Sunday morning is a timed keep-out problem before it is a security rewrite. Irakleio printed a four-point box in the Saronic Gulf, named an extension of activation of firing practice area Plateia, named FIRNG exercises, named 9 November and 16 November, named 0400–1700 UTC on each of those days, and named avoid crossing. An avoid-crossing sentence under a bounded firing-exercise body is a closed polygon for ships that are not in the serial. It is not AIS-optional. It is not a Piraeus port closure. It is not 1343/26’s one-day Fournoi box. It is not 1342/26’s five-day Drapano FORACS box. It is not 201/26’s five-day Zakynthos serial. A passage plan that only budgeted 1343/26’s 8 November Samos window, or that treated the Saronic as clean because Saturday night’s dedicated firing sat at 026-30 E, has not budgeted a four-corner box that opens at 0400 UTC on 9 November. Give the polygon. Stay out of it in the printed hours. Do not pass through 37-48 N, 023-22 E at 0900 UTC on 9 November because “Piraeus is open.”
The 8–16 November Greek firing tape is the operational content a DPA has to get right. Dedicated 1343/26 tells the bridge to avoid a Fournoi firing box from 0600Z to 1500Z on 8 November, still live this morning, with Irakleio 1408/26 wrapping the same box to 1600 UTC. Dedicated 1342/26 tells the bridge not to cross the Drapano polygon from 0600Z to 1600Z on 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 November. This morning’s dedicated Kerkyra 201/26 tells the bridge to avoid a Zakynthos Ionian box 0630–0730 UTC each of those same mornings, plus the later short windows, cancel 130830 UTC 13 November. This file tells the bridge to avoid a Saronic Plateia box 0400–1700 UTC on 9 November and again on 16 November, cancel 1800 UTC 16 November. Dedicated 1336/26 still tells the bridge to give NG SURVEYOR a wide berth on a 21-point South Aegean line with no printed end, a line whose western points sit next to this box. Dedicated 1411/26 still tells the bridge that Abeille Marengo is on a 2 NM east-Med cable track through 6 March 2027. A passage plan that only plotted Fournoi, or that treated 081600 UTC 8 November as an all-clear for Greek waters, has not budgeted Plateia and Zakynthos tomorrow morning and has not budgeted Drapano from 0600Z. Charterers asking whether “the Saronic is closed for firing until 16 November” will not be answered by this file. What arrived is two discrete 13-hour Plateia days, not an eight-day Saronic shutdown and not an Ionian rewrite.
Piraeus, Aegina, Methana and Poros remain open on this text. 1409/26 does not print a harbour-master closure, a pilot-boarding amendment, a Corinth Canal note, or a VHF working channel for the range. Hulls that would otherwise have cut the west-Aegina face inside 37-52 N to 37-44 N, 023-17 E to 023-26 E in daylight on 9 or 16 November need an easting inside the east wall toward the Aegina shore, a west-about outside 023-17 E, or a night / shoulder-hour transit outside 0400–1700 UTC. Do not invent a 24-hour closure. Do not invent a 2 NM halo around 37-48 N 023-22 E. Plot the four corners. Stay out of the polygon in the printed hours. Report actual range activity, an unlit hull, or a close-quarters situation to JRCC Piraeus and to the company security officer. Logging 1409/26 is not a substitute for a sighting report. The 1800 UTC 16 November cancel is one hour after the second 0400–1700 window. Do not occupy the box at 1715 UTC on 16 November because “the 1700 window has closed.” Wait for 1800 UTC on the Irakleio kill, then treat the serial as past unless a later NAVWARN extends it.
The two-day tape is the operational content a week-order book has to get right. 9 November is live from 0400 UTC to 1700 UTC. 10–15 November are not printed Plateia days. 16 November is live again from 0400 UTC to 1700 UTC, then kills at 1800 UTC. A passage plan that treats 10–15 November as closed because “Plateia is extended” has over-read two days into a week. A passage plan that drops 16 November because “the 9 November overlap with Drapano was the whole serial” has under-read the second day. Give 9 November. Give 16 November. Do not give 10–15 November from this number. Dedicated 1342/26 still occupies Drapano 10–13 November. Dedicated 201/26 still occupies Zakynthos 10–13 November. Those are other files.
Keep the dedicated files on their own lines. 1343/26 remains Saturday night’s dedicated Fournoi firing box, 080600Z–081500Z 8 November, still live this morning through 1500Z, Irakleio 1408/26 wrap to 1600 UTC. 1342/26 remains Saturday morning’s dedicated Drapano FORACS box, 9–13 November, 0600Z–1600Z, eight points around 35-27 N 024-20 E. 201/26 is the other dedicated file on this 0330 UTC Sunday desk: Zakynthos, 9–13 November, split UTC hours. 1336/26 remains Wednesday morning’s dedicated NG SURVEYOR South Aegean geophysical line from 5 November with no printed end. 1411/26 remains Saturday afternoon’s dedicated Abeille Marengo 2 NM cable track through 6 March 2027. 0169/26 remains Monday 4 November’s dedicated Britoil Centurion Central Mediterranean track through 15 February 2027. 0168/26 remains weekly group 44 through 092359 UTC 9 November. 1338/26, 1339/26 and 1351/26 remain unused unlit lights. 1345/26, 1347/26 and 1350/26 remain wrap. Last night’s dedicated 198-26 remains the Khor Fakkan bulk-carrier Advisory. Friday night’s dedicated 197-26 remains the Khasab tanker waterline explosion. Friday night’s dedicated 432/26 remains the southern-Gulf container through 082359 UTC 8 November. Friday morning’s dedicated 431/26 remains the Fujairah jack-up through 132359 UTC 13 November. Saturday afternoon’s dedicated 799/26 remains the Varna port-and-road windows on 10 and 13 November. IMO remains 129 / 25 as at 6 November. UKMTO still ends at 198-26 on the Advisory line and at 197-26 on the Attack line. NAVAREA IX still ends at 433/26 as the in-force list atop dedicated 432/26. Official Cyprus 345/26 remains unused as dedicated. NAVAREA III 0170/26 remains unused as dedicated. Do not recast 8 November morning as a Piraeus exclusion zone, as a 1343 rewrite, as a 201 reprint, as a 1342 Saronic conversion, or as a completed 0168 weekly-list rewrite.
What Operators Should Note
- Log 1409/26 as a two-day Saronic Plateia firing box, not as a 1343/26 rewrite and not as a 201/26 Ionian conversion. Official Irakleio Radio NAVWARN 1409/26, ZCZC HA13 061054 UTC 6 November 2026. Saronikos Gulf. Extension of activation of firing practice area ‘Plateia’ on 9 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC, and on 16 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC. FIRNG exercises. Four-point box: 37-47.00N 023-17.00E / 37-52.00N 023-22.00E / 37-50.00N 023-26.00E / 37-44.00N 023-22.00E. Avoid crossing above area. Cancel 16 November 2026 1800 UTC. Irakleio names neither hull, IMO, VHF, keep-clear radius outside the polygon, RAM status, fishing ban, weapon class nor a harbour-master closure. Hold the official FIRNG spelling. Saturday night held this body as wrap on dedicated 1343/26. Sunday morning is the dedicated conversion. This is not 1343/26, not 1342/26, and not this morning’s dedicated 201/26.
- Plot the four-point box, not a single circle and not a Piraeus closure. North-west 37-47.00N 023-17.00E. North-east 37-52.00N 023-22.00E. South-east 37-50.00N 023-26.00E. South-west 37-44.00N 023-22.00E. On the order of 8 by 8 nautical miles in the Saronic Gulf west of Aegina. Piraeus west-about, Aegina west face, Methana / Poros and the Saronic coastal all see a corner. Do not brief a port shutdown. Do not drop the east wall because the next port is Piraeus. Stay out of the polygon from 0400 UTC to 1700 UTC on 9 November and again on 16 November. Hold 1800 UTC 16 November as the kill, one hour after the second window.
- Hold the two days; do not merge them into a 9–16 November shutdown. Prohibited days are 9 November and 16 November, 0400–1700 UTC each, 0600–1900 local in November. 10–15 November are not printed Plateia days. First prohibited hour is 0400 UTC 9 November, not 8 November. Do not apply 1343/26’s 0600Z–1500Z 8 November Fournoi hours to this number. Do not apply 201/26’s 0630–0730 UTC Zakynthos hours to this number. Do not apply 1342/26’s 9–13 November Drapano dates to this number. The 071710 UTC 7 November Irakleio in-force summary omits 1409; hold the HA13 body, and do not treat that omission as a cancel. Watch a later Irakleio NAVWARN that moves a point, adds a radius, prints a hull or a weapon class, or extends past 1800 UTC 16 November.
- Carry 9 November as three Greek products, not one firing. Dedicated 1342/26: Drapano FORACS, 0600Z–1600Z, eight points around 35-27 N 024-20 E, crossing prohibited. This morning’s dedicated 201/26: Zakynthos, 0630–0730 UTC plus the 9 November 0930–1045 UTC window, four corners around 37-20 N 020-30 E. This file: Plateia, 0400–1700 UTC, four corners around 37-48 N 023-22 E. Dedicated 1343/26’s Fournoi box is still live this morning through 1500Z 8 November, Irakleio 1408/26 wrap to 1600 UTC, and is past before 1409/26 opens. Do not merge Plateia onto Zakynthos, onto Drapano, or onto Fournoi. Carry 16 November as Plateia’s second day, after 1342/26 and 201/26 have already killed.
- Do not promote 1411/26, 1336/26, 345/26 or 0170/26 onto this box. 1411/26 remains dedicated: Abeille Marengo, 21-point east-Med cable, 2 NM berth, through 6 March 2027. 1336/26 remains dedicated: NG SURVEYOR, 21-point South Aegean line from 5 November, wide berth requested, no printed end; its western points sit next to this box and remain a survey line, not a firing. Official Cyprus 345/26 remains unused as dedicated. NAVAREA III 0171/26 remains wrap on 1411/26. NAVAREA III 0170/26 remains unused as dedicated. 1338/26, 1339/26 and 1351/26 remain unused unlit lights. 0169/26 remains dedicated Britoil Centurion through 15 February 2027. 0168/26 remains weekly group 44 through 092359 UTC 9 November and does not print 1409; that 2359 UTC cancel is the evening of 1409’s first day, not a merged all-clear. 1345/26 Tragonisi wreck, 1347/26 Chalkida lightbuoy and 1350/26 Nea Moudania unlit light remain wrap.
- Keep the Black Sea and Hormuz tape on their own sheets. Saturday afternoon’s dedicated 799/26 remains Varna port and road, 0500–0900 UTC 10 November and 0800–1200 UTC 13 November. Saturday morning’s dedicated 168/26 remains SEA ANGEL 1, 13.12 UTC 6 November, 44-11.68 N 028-43.60 E. Friday afternoon’s dedicated 167/26 remains the 9 November 20 km training circle at 44-02.80 N. Last night’s dedicated 198-26 remains the Khor Fakkan bulk-carrier Advisory. Friday night’s dedicated 197-26 remains the Khasab tanker waterline explosion. Friday night’s dedicated 432/26 remains the southern-Gulf container through 082359 UTC 8 November. Friday morning’s dedicated 431/26 remains SKATE 3D inside Port of Fujairah through 132359 UTC 13 November. IMO remains 129 / 25 as at 6 November. UKMTO still ends at 198-26 on the Advisory line. NAVAREA IX still lists 433/26 as the in-force list atop dedicated 432/26. Sightings of range activity, an unlit hull, or a close-quarters situation go to JRCC Piraeus and to the CSO.
Regulas Shipping will keep lining Irakleio 1409/26 against Saturday night’s dedicated 1343/26 and against this morning’s dedicated Kerkyra 201/26 so operators can treat Sunday morning’s Saronic tape as 9 and 16 November Plateia firing windows in a 0400–1700 UTC box, not as a Fournoi rewrite, a Zakynthos conversion, or a Piraeus port closure.
