Note,this is for information only,it is up to the mariner himself to check out postitions and bearings.
Left click chart to enlarge.

Left click this picture to view in a larger size,then cast your eye along the red arrow line,its basically the same approach course as the chartlet gives above!

Ship wreck, Mara Hope,its position,the marina.

This picture does show a bouy,does it light up at night I wonder?

Hard to miss,in day light anyway.

Whats left of the wreck,the other half is still under the water I assume,its hidden from view.

The view of the wreck from the marina.
My 2009/1 copy of Flying Fish,the Journal of the Ocean Cruising club high lights a very near miss when a yacht was heading for the Marina Hotel,Fortaleza,Brasil one night,using a chartlet from the hotels own web site they almost piled up on this well known (to locals) ship wreck,the charts are incorrect too it seems?
