Re: "Where's this?"
I've made a sort of hobby of landing on these lighthouses, but this one has defeated me three times. Each time the weather was enough to put me off even anchoring. But there is a spot I reckon that would be suitable to anchor in calm weather. Might be possible between the main rock and the "awash" rock on the chart.Nick wrote:.
Very interesting; I've never passed that way close enough to get a look at it.
Anyone landed on it?
Here's an old chart of the rocks.
