|
westward from P. head at the |
||
south-western extremity of the is- |
||
lands. P. bank, with a least depth of |
||
13 fathoms (23m8) over it, lies |
||
nearly 3 miles southward of B. |
||
rock; the overfalls make it danger- |
||
ous to open boats in rough weather. |
||
(hazy - туманный; ledge -риф, |
||

|
to 6 feet (0m9 to lm8) over them; a |
||
boiler, which dries 2 feet (0m6) lies |
||
close within the south-eastern cor- |
||
ner of these shoals; the approach to |
||
С bar lies between the south- |
||
western end of these shoals and the |
||
foul ground extending from I. |
||
(boiler - котел; to dry ~ ссыхать) |
||
3. Off-lying banks. - Cape C. Bank, about 6 /2 miles north-westward of |

|
least known depth of 12 fathoms |
мысом В., около 2-х миль на северо- |
|
(2 lm9) over it near its southern extremity. As the sea breaks heavily in bad weather on Cape C. bank and B. shoal, particularly during north-westerly gales their locality should be avoided at such times, especially by small and heavily laden vessels, (to break heavily -образовывать буруны) 4. Between В. Т. and В. Head, 33/4 miles south-eastward, is a succession of dark, rugged cliffs rising abruptly to an elevation of 400 feet (121m9); thence the coast trends about one mile northward to the entrance to S harbour; it maintains the same elevation, with but few trees and is intersected by deep ravines, but it rises less abruptly than westward of the head. (succession - последовательность; rugged неровный; to intersect - пересекать; ravine -ущелье, овраг) 5. Submarine cables. - Submarine cables cross the harbour from a position close to S. situated 3V4 cables north-eastward of A. point. Vessels should not anchor in the vicinity of these cables, the positions of which are indicated by wavy lines on the chart. (In the vicinity of- поблизости, в районе (чего-либо) L |
восток имеются несколько отдельно лежащих участков земли с глубинами от 7 до 18 футов (от 2,1м до 5,5м), лежащих в пределах одного кабельтова к берегу. d) Банка С, отмель из мелких ракушек e) Удалённые от берега опасности. - |
|
6. S. bank, a shoal of pulverized shell and fine gravel, extends for about 3V2 miles north-eastward from a position about 6 cables northeastward of S.P. lighthouse; close to its southern end there are depths of 7 and 11 feet (2ml and 3m4), and on other parts there are 11 to 30 feet (3m4 to 9ml), with occasionally greater depths. The bank terminates at the northeastern end in a sandy shoal nearly one mile in length, with a least depth of 15 feet (4m6). In boisterous weather the sea breaks heavily on all parts ofS. bank, especially on the south-western end; with strong easterly winds there is no shelter between the shoal and the land, the broken water extending to the coast. (broken water - неспокойное море, close to -- близко, вплотную к, to terminate ~ кончать (ся), boisterous - бурный, неистовый) 7. A shoal, with a depth of 17 feet 8. The coast between M. and B. head |

|
is fringed by above-water and sunken rocks for as much as half a mile offshore. These rocks are steep-to. (steep-to - приглубый; to fringe - окаймлять) 9. P. sand, on the south-western side of the channel, extends lV2 miles south-eastward from W. sand, and the greater part dries from 2 to 4 feet (0m6 to lm2). C. ledge, a group of flat rocks which dry 2 feet (0m6), lies on the northern edge of P. sand, about half a mile eastward of the northern extremity of The Warren. There is small bank off the south-eastern end of P. sand which is liable to shift its position and change its shape during bad weather. |
на юго-восток имеется ряд темных, неровных утёсов, поднимающихся резко на высоту 400 футов (121,9м), откуда берег направляется на расстоянии 1 мили на север к входу в гавань С, он сохраняет ту же высоту с небольшим количеством деревьев и пересекается глубокими оврагами, но поднимается не так резко, чем к западу от мыса. i) Подводные кабели. - Подводные кабели пересекают гавань от места рядом с С, расположенного в 3,75 кабельтовых на северо-восток от мыса А. Судам не следует становиться на якорь в районе этих кабелей, местонахождение которых обозначено волнистыми линиями на карте. |
Exercise 10. Read the text and say what useful information you have got
Dangers. - Spur reef extends nearly a mile south-south-westward of Middle island. The western side, on which the sea always breaks, dries 3 feet (0m9); the eastern side was, in 1891, marked by a wreck. Foul ground extends one mile southward and 172 miles south-eastward from the reef.
There are numerous shoal patches scattered about the northern end of the lagoon, within 2 miles of East island, with depths of from lV2 to 372 fathoms (2m7 to 6m4) over them. The position of which can best be seen on the chart. (To scatter - разбрасывать)
Parry patch, with depths of 2l/4 fathoms (4ml) over it, at the entrance to Rambler bay, lies nearly 2V2 miles north-north-eastward of Marianne point. Elder rock, with a depth of 5 feet (lm5) over it, lies about 2 miles east-northeastward of Marianne point. A 3-fathom (5m5) coral patch lies 7 cables south-westward of Elder rock. About 13 cables north-eastward of Marianne point is a patch with depths of 4 fathoms (7m3) over it. About 4 cables west-north-westward of this patch is another with depths of 3 fathom (18m3) line, in the open part of the lagoon northward of those just mentioned, but ail have a greater depth than 5 fathoms (9ml) over them.
Minni-Minni patch, with a depth of 17 feet (5m2) over it, lies 872 cables north-westward of the mined settlement at Minni-Minni. The lagoon southward of Minm-Mmm patch is studded with dangers; but vessels can proceed to within 3 miles of its southern end by keeping a careful look-out from aloft, and of buoying the intricate parts. (To stud - усеивать, усыпать; intricate сложный, запутанный; aloft- наверху,нареях)
Dangers. ~ Bank du Vaudreuil lies maidway between the north-eastern side of Nosi Ovi and the northern shore of Rafaralahi bay between Sangajira point and Anorontsangana. This bank is broken in the centre by a passage with depths of from 5 to 8 fathoms (9ml to 14m6); there are some rocks awash on the southern part of the bank, and depths of less than 3 feet (0m9) over the northern part.
A detached, 2l/2 - fathom (4m6), coral patch lies 23/4 miles north-westward; a rock with a depth of less than 6 feet (lm8) over it, lies about a mile northward; and some drying patches of reef lie about 2 miles north-north-eastward of Lavalohalika point. A 4-fathom (7m3) bank lies in the middle of the entrance to the bay, about 21/2 miles south-south-westward of the Custom house (Lat 13°55'S, Long. 47°56'E).
Coast. - Outlying shoals. - Dangers.- From abreast Maromoni point the outer reef which is of the nature of a submerged barrier reef, and is a continuation of that which begins near Nosi Kivinji off the north-western side of the Am-bavatobi peninsula, continued south-westward, from 10 to 15 miles offshore as far as Bali bay, a distance of 156 miles, or, including the portion northward of Maromoni point (Lat. 14°40'S, Long. 47°28'E), about 230 miles. (Peninsula - полуостров)
h) As soundings on this outer reef have been chiefly taken not with the object of finding the shallowest spots on it, but to discover the best passages through, it is not improbable that depths shallower than any charted may be found in many places; consequently, whatever a vessel's draught, it is always best to cross the outer reef by one of the passages indicated, as they have been examined with some exactness. (Spot - место; improbable ~ невероятный, неправдоподобный; consequently ~ поэтому, в результате)
i) From Mahajamba bay westward, the principal known shoals on the outer reef, as well as the passes, are all named. The least known depth is 2 fathoms (3m7) but there are very numerous patches with depths of from 3 to 41/2 fathoms (5m5 to 8m2) over them. On Thetis bank, off Cape Tanjjona the coral appears to be still living, and the bottom very irregular; elsewhere the bottom is regular, the coral being dead and almost always covered with sand of seaweed. (Seaweed - морская водоросль)
j) Dangers. - A 43/4 - fathom (8m7) bank lies about 11 miles north-north-westward and another similar patch about 9 miles north-westward of Maro-moni point. These banks are of coral and lie near the western edge of the outer reef.
k) Diamond bank lies about 7 miles westward of Maromoni point (Lat. 14°40'S, Long. 47°28'E), and 4 miles offshore. There are many heads on this shoal, the least depth being 15 feet (4m6). All these dangers lie on the outer reef.
1) Westward of Diamond bank there are several 4V4 - fathom (7m8) patches on the outer reef. A bank, with depths of 374 and 4V4 fathoms (5m9 and 8m2) over it, lies about 8 miles south-westward of Maromoni point and three-quarters of a mile offshore, and a 4V2 - fathom (8m2) patch lies about 5l/2 miles north-north-eastward of Marolahi point and l3/4 miles offshore. A reef extends at about 7 cables westward of Marolahi point with depth of 4 fathoms (7m3) over the extremity.
m) A reef, with depths of 2 fathoms (3m7) or less over it, extends 2 cables northward from Mys Fel'kerzama, the northern extremity of the peninsula; it merges into a sand rocky ledge, from 2 to 3 cables wide, with depths of from 3 to 4V4 fathoms (5m5 to 7m8) over it, extending west-north-westward to the western shore of the bay. A black spar buoy, surmounted by a black broom, point up, is moored about 3 cables west-north-westward of the extremity of Mys Fel'kerzama. (To merge - сливаться)
n) Between Mys Mydela and Mys Filisova, a promontory 237 feet (72m2) high, about 11/2 miles north-eastward, the coast is generally high and indented by several bights, with low shores, which are frequently marshy. There is a fishing station about half a mile south-westward of Mys Filisova. (Promontory мыс; to indent - зазубривать; bight бухта; frequently часто; marshy -болотистый)

Exercise 1. Scan the text and decide whether the statements below are true (+) or false (-).
Ships may have to anchor at sea when necessary. They may anchor at places where the depths are sufficient.
Anchorages in depths of from 2 m may be afforded by small crafts. Anchorages in depths of not less than 7,5 m can be obtained by vessels of deep draught.
Anchorages may be of different kinds. There are temporary, permanent, emergency anchorages; they may be safe, excellent, fair, sheltered or exposed to winds.
There are usual or special-purpose anchorages such as: the man-of-war or quarantine anchorages.
Temporary anchorages are taken by the ships when they need some shelter or protection to avoid heavy weather for a short time.
Permanent anchorages are usually outside or inside the port, when the ships have to wait for a vacant berth, or a pilot, or a tug.
In cable areas anchorage is prohibited and ships should not anchor there.
Some anchorages can be found only by vessels with local knowledge.
Before anchoring the captain of a ship must have full information as to the depths, character of bottom, prevailing winds. He must also know bearings from anchorage to some landmarks. All this information is given in a Pilot book.
Bottom at anchorages may be: fine or coarse sand, mud, clay shells, stone, coral, etc. Foul ground should be avoided.

Large vessels anchor in 7 to 10 fathoms, sand, and mud, with le Pouleins light in line with Garean Tower and Pointe de Tailleger, 290°, and le Gres Rocher, 175°. Small vessels anchor close in. This position is well sheltered from South and SW winds but with strong north-westerly or south-easterly winds there is a very heavy sea.
The bay affords excellent shelter from north-westerly winds, which prevail in summer, but it is insecure in winter, when winds from opposite directions prevail. A good anchorage is in 6 fathoms, mud, between the villages of Es-carabote and Exteiro.
Vessels are recommended to anchor about a mile from the north shore of the bay, in depths of from 6 to 12 fathoms, the bottom being generally mud, mixed with sand near the shore, and a good berth is about half a mile southeastward of Ouaiha Hana; in 4 to 5 fathoms.
Because of the foul ground in Alum Bay, only yachts and small vessels anchor there. The best position is about 400 yards westward of the ruins of a pier, which extend from the eastern shore, with the junction of the white and coloured cliffs bearing about 120° and Albert Fort in range with Hatherwood Point, bearing 39°. A depth of 18 do 21 feet (5.5 to 6.4) will be found in this position.
When merchant vessels are directed to anchor in Strokes Bay they shall anchor to westward of the beacons showing the western end of the measured distance, and as close to the shore as their draft will safely permit.
Anchorage may be obtained during easterly winds off Klauf, in a depth of 14 fathoms, rock, sand, and stones, with the summit of Daldjall in line with the western extremity of the coast southward of it, bearing about 355е, and the eastern extremity of Hellisey in line with the west side of Sudwey, bearing about 207°.
Anchorage may be obtained, by vessels with local knowledge westward of Arnesseyjar, with the northern extremity of that islet bearing about 85°, and Armes Church, in the southwestern corner of the bay, bearing about 202 °.
Vessels can moor in certain assigned positions outside the breakwaters. These anchorage berths are shown on the charts by capital letter followed by a numeral the largest vessels may anchor within the breakwaters, sheltered from all winds. Vessels may ride safely to a single anchor with a good scope of cable out.
Anchorage may be obtained in depth of from 7 to 10 fathoms (12m8 to 18m3) between Port Louis citadel and St. Michel island, but care must be taken to keep clear of the channel. Large vessels secure to No. 1 mooring buoy northward of the citadel, which is moored in a depth of 31 feet (9m4).
The quarantine anchorage is in depths of 12 fathoms (21m9) coarse sand and coral, southward of a line joining P. mountain and Fort W., with light-buoy bearing about 075", distant 6 cables; two small black buoys for the use of the quarantine guard boat are moored between the anchorage and B. point the north-western extremity of B. island. Vessels in quarantine are, however, allowed to enter the harbour in order to coal in smooth water.
In general, the holding ground in Exmouth gulf is good, the fine brown sand having almost the consistency of mud.
Anchorage becomes considerably less exposed towards the southern part, and little or no swell is experienced south of Learmonth, about 8 miles north north-north-westward of Point Lefroy. For shallow draught vessels, good anchorage may be had northward of Point Leffroy, which also provides the best landing, but it is about 9 miles by road from the nearest habitation.
12. During the north-eastern monsoon there is anchorage eastward of the sand
ridge which extends southward from Tanjong Doengoe, in depth of from 6 to
8 fathoms (1 lm0 to 14m6) about 2 miles off-shore. In the south-east monsoon
there is good anchorage westward of Tanjong Senna, in depth of from 11 to
14 fathoms (20ml to 25m6), mud; the bay on the western side of this point is foul, and must not be entered farther than the alignment of the southern extremity of Boean with Tanjong Senna bearing about 079°.
Vettekulla, about V/i miles west-north-westward of ortholmen light-structure affords anchorage to small vessels with local knowledge, in a depth of 10 feet (3m0), sand. There is a small pier, with a depth of \VA feet (3m5) alongside. The anchorage is approached from the inshore channel leading from Karl-shamn to Metvik.
Prohibited anchorage. Submarine cables cross the river near the Resident house and are marked by two pairs of leading beacons. Anchorage is prohibited in the vicinity of these cables.
There is a convenient anchorage for vessels with local knowledge in a depth of 8 fathoms (14m6), hard sand, with Hoog Island bearing 215° distant about one mile; also about half a mile eastward of this islet in a depth of about 11 fathoms (20ml). Care must be taken, however to avoid the reefs in this locality.
The anchorage space, in from 7 to 9 fathoms (12.8 to 16.5m) is about 800 yards in extent; the bottom is of sand, and the holding ground is good, but better near St. Mary's Island than to the eastward. Vessels should not anchor on the Ridge situated 1000 yards eastward of Tolls Island, nor on the ground immediately to the southward of it, as the bottom is rocky and uneven.

Exercise 1. Scan the text and focus on the equipment used for anchoring and its main Junction. Enumerate them:
Anchoring
Ships may anchor inside or outside the harbour. Before anchoring it is necessary to slacken speed.
When the vessel is approaching the anchorage or her designated berth, the anchor has been thoroughly checked and prepared: windlass and hinging parts have been greased, bandbrakes tested, hawse pipe-closing plates removed, etc.
In order to avoid any unexpected situations, it is customary to prepare both starboard and port anchors for letting go.
Bad holding ground, such as sand and shells, will cause the anchor to drag.
Therefore information about holding ground must be looked up in the pilot book or chart prior to letting go anchors.
When a river berth has been allocated by the VTS Station or port authority, it will sometimes be necessary to "dredge anchor" in order to make a sharp turn towards the embankment
Letting go a single anchor is the simplest method of securing a ship to the bottom. If the holding ground is good she should rise easily in bad weather provided sufficient scope of chain is used.
But in a strong current or in a gale a vessel may sheer considerably. Therefore it is necessary to have an unobstructed area equal to a circle whose radius is the length of the ship plus the scope of chain used. If for some reason, the anchorage doesn't afford such an area, the ship must be moored.
In modern ships the anchors are housed in the Hawse pipe and secured by chain stoppers. The anchors may be required unexpectedly when on soundings, in narrow channels in restricted waters or working around docks, etc. The Master or the Watch Officer must determine how much of chain is to be paid out in each case.
The length of chain that is put out is indicated by the number of shackles (1 shackle equals 15 fathoms). Safe anchoring implies that a length of chain equal to the depth of water plus two shackles must be used.
More shackles must be put in the water:
when the water is very deep (more than 25 fathoms)
in adverse weather
when barges are passing close to the vessel
when the anchor chain has a low tensile strength
when the anchor chain is leading ahead
When the anchor is holding, the anchor lights must be switched on and the anchor ball is hoisted.
A vessel in dependence of her length shall carry one or two white lights visible all round the horizon, one at the foremast stay and the other at the stern.
The anchor position must be checked by bearings at regular intervals. When the vessel is at anchor at night one or more men should be posted on anchor watch.
Exercise 2. Describe the main steps of anchoring in brief using the following expressions
inside or outside the harbour
to slacken (to reduce) speed
to approach
to check and prepare
both starboard and port anchors
to let go
to provide
sufficient scope of chain
