The railway station, and sheds are on these wharves, which form a conspicuous mark. From Tupper Point the ferry crosses to the terminus of the main land branch at Murray Cove. The Scotia, the railway ferry icebreaking steamer, either end of which acts as bow, is constructed to carry 9 railway sleeping cars, each 80 feet long, Marc jacobs outlet and weighing 52 tons unloaded, on three sets of rails on deck. The railway ferry is open throughout the year. Hospital. A marine hospital is maintained at Tupper Point. Port Hawkesbury is a large cove, terminated by a bridge nearly 1 mile from its entrance.
There is a settlement with two chapels on the northeastern side of the harbor, and there are stations of the Intercolonial and Tiffany and co outlet the Inverness Richmond Railroads. Vessels winter at the wharves in safety. The population of the tiffany outlet settlement was 684 in 1911. Premier Shoal, (lat. 45 37', Tiffany & Co. outlets long. 61 22'), with 13 feet least water, soft mud, is a middle ground in the entrance of the port. It may be passed on either side, but the wider and deeper channel is northward of it. Tupper Point and the western end of Pirate Island in range, bearing 190 , leads westward of the shoal in 5 fathoms. Anchorage. The roadstead off the mouth of this harbor, and outside Premier Shoal, is much frequented by vessels detained by southeasterly winds.
The depth in the roadstead is 7 to 9 fathoms, sand, gravel, and mud, with Pirate Island open westward of Tupper Point. The anchorage is open to north-northwesterly winds, which blow directly through the gut, and tiffany outlet cause, at times, a heavy sea, with very rough riding, excepting when well in toward the head of the harbor, where anchorage in 3 fathoms, mud, is quite secure and out of the tidal currents. Prohibited anchorage. Anchorage is prohibited between Tupper Point and Murray Cove in the track of the railway ferry. Ice. The port is usually frozen over about February 3, and clear of Marc Jacobs ice about April 23, being completely closed only at intervals between those dates.
