Pirates Dead Mans Cove Stuck

So I'm completely stuck at dead mans cove trying to get the kraken piece. I just got the bomb upgrade and went through the island but stuck and don't know how to open the gate to get the dingy out to the front part of the island to continue.. I tried looking everywhere for a switch but don't see one anywhere and I have no mission arrow pointing anywhere to tell me where to go or what to do.

I'm having the exact same issue. Picked up the bomb, blew open the gate, but now I have no missions and can't the dingy out of the small cove.

I had no troubles, I am past that part, I just rowed through the gate that I blasted open. Is this right after you got the bomb? I can not picture any where one could get stuck. Perhaps some more detail as to where exactly you are, a photo would be helpful too if that is possible on here.

Wow, it really was that simple. I had tried throwing bombs at the gate, at the counterweights, had roamed all the area I could (or so I thought). But I never took the dingy towards the gate to trigger the objective update. Thanks!

I guess my game must be glitches then.. I because rowing towards the gate does nothing.. Im literally sitting with my dingy touching the gate and it hasn't opened.. I got the bombs and everything I can get that is accessible here... Man this is frustrating

You need to drop the two counterweights to unlock the gate so that you can get the dinghy out to the other part of the island.

Just walk around the island. You will find two paths, each goes to a counterweight. It is actually very easy. I blew past that in about 5-10 minutes (literally blew past it with the bomb).
