Book Description

Excerpt from Baltic Pilot, Vol. 1: The Baltic Sea From Falsterbo Point and Cape Arkona to the Entrances of the Gulfs of Finland and Bothnia This publication contains the sailing directions for the Baltic Sea from Falsterbo Point and Cape Arkona to the entrances of the Gulfs of Finland and Bothnia. The information contained therein is taken mainly from Baltic Pilot, Part II, published by the British Admiralty. It contains the latest information from all reliable sources, including all Hydro graphic Office Notices to Mariners up to No. 3 of 1917. The text has not been altered to conform with changes incident to the war, such as the location of mine fields, extinguishing of lights, etc, information concerning which has been published from time to time in the Notices to Mariners. These have been considered of a temporary nature and the Notices to Mariners should be consulted in connection with the text. The bearings and courses are true, in degrees from 0° (north) to 360° (clockwise). Bearings limiting the sectors of lights are toward the light.
