SHOAL WATER OFF POINT CARTWRIGHT.
Notice is hereby given, that a Rocky Patch about 2 cables in extent, the depth on which does not exceed 5 fathoms, lies midway between Gneering Shoal and the 8-fathom patch 2 miles to the eastward. In bad weather, there is a heavy break on this and the Gneering Shoal.
Half-a-mile to the eastward of the position of the 8-fathom patch shown on the chart, the depth does not exceed 72 fathoms, and broken water is said to have been seen still farther to the south-eastward.
In bad weather, therefore, vessels are cautioned against approaching this part of the coast.
