Hull Gut, a dredged channel between Peddocks Island and Windmill Point, leads into Hingham Bay from Nantasket Roads and is a section of the Weymouth Fore River Channel improvement. Unmarked submerged rocks cleared to a depth of 16 feet are about 500 yards southward of Windmill Point Light WP.
Point Allerton has a 100-foot hill covered with buildings; a seawall protects the seaward base of the hill. A turreted tower on the hill is conspicuous.
From Point Allerton the shore extends westward for 2 miles to Windmill Point, which is marked by a light and sound signal. The Coast Guard has a boathouse on the southern side of Windmill Point and another about 0.3 mile eastward of the point at the Point Allerton Coast Guard Station. Telegraph Hill, 1 mile west of Point Allerton, is about 100 feet high and is marked by a stone tower with a conical top; the town of Hull is on the western slopes of the hill.
A channel about 13 feet deep, commencing just southward of the buoy marking Inner Seal Rock, about 0.6 mile southeastward of Windmill Point Light, leads to a wharf on the northwest side of Spinnaker (Hog) Island. The island is connected to the mainland by a causeway and fixed bridge.
A channel, privately marked by seasonal buoys, eastward of Spinnaker Island, leads northward to a special anchorage in Allerton Harbor.
