Passed according to preliminary estimates about 1850-1950 km. Because of the hummocks, the Bay of Proval is not completely passed, in the Chivyrkuy Gulf it reached o.Goly. Barguzinsky Bay is a bit cut off at the isthmus. In small, but deep into the coastal zone, the bays reached half: Sor Bay, Ayay Bay, Frolikha Bay, Boguchanskaya Bay, Mukhur Bay, Ust-Anga Bay. Slightly compensated for the "hook" to the Great Ushkan Island.
