Yes I think there was some confusion between what the six pack is and what the graveyard is. The six pack is b/t Long Island and Dow Island and consists of 3 pairs of red and black bouys. You go through it after leaving Long Island bridge and heading East to head toward Moultonboro Bay. Watch for the black markers on your right about a mile after leaving the bridge (they sneak up on people new to the area. there are 2 of those. Then a few miles more and you will hit the six pack.

As for the graveyard markers. Generally when I'm coming from the west side of Dow and heading to MB, I don't go through the grave yard and as such the most direct line has me hugging the two black markers then swinging around Melvin Island (b/t Melvin Island and Chase Island). As such the red marker is irrelevant to me. If you are looking to enter the Graveyard, the red marker may help you swing out south of the entrance of the graveyard and prevent some lower unit damage. This stretch b/t west side of Dow and the Graveyard has a few black markers a long way from shore....make sure you find them and stay north and east of them or you will find some nasty rocks....better yet, avoid that area and go through the six pack and head between Chase Point and Whortleberry.

Bizer is a huge help for me but my Navionics chip is a much bigger help when underway. A quick glance at it when it down eases my mind in new areas.
