It extends about a quarter of a mile in NE. and SW. dirsation, and is about 10 yards wide; the least depth obtained in 18 feet, but less waler probably exists.

From the SW, extremig of the patch for a distance of mile in a SW. by S. direction extends a rocky lodge, the least water obtained on which was 17 fathoms

Was branking ocasionally, and it would probably break all over the patch with moderate sea running.

The overfalls and tile-rips should be visible from ship for at least a mile and with al favourable light, the light-green colene prer the coral patch should be seen from the same distance.

There are depths of 27 to 30 fius, sand and mud, at a distance of about a quarter of a mile all round the patel, except where the rocky ledge extends, so the lead will give no warning until within the limit where the bottom becomes volcanic rock, scorias, and broken coral.

This patch is probably identical with Costa Rica Breakers, reported 1968; Socotru Ruck, June 1900: Chiyuan Shoal, Sept. 1900; Bombay Discoloured Water, October 19,0.

Tidal strains run very strong over and to the vicinity of the rock, and they are of n rotatory nature. The stream was running South 2 knots an hour when the Waterwileh was close to the patch."
