After one of the best day's sailing ever off the west coast, beating, close reaching Tobers, Treshnish (Pufflings) to Cragaig on flat seas in sunshine, we are now feeling a little queasy on a mooring facing southerlies in Loch Eatharna. Anyway justified an eyepad to mount the excellent Antares charts and so also mounted iSailor as a backup chart plotter. Was vexed to note that the two rocks off Lunga, the southern approach to the puffins, are not charted, but a non existent (cf all other sources) 1.2m sounding is. Our trace shows us going over it at low tide....

Do tell Antares Bob of your findings. He loves a new bit of rock-searching.
