The canvas chart Folio is open on three sides with 4 ties to keep the charts in place. 2. Each Folio is numbered in the lower RH corner, and also has the Shelf number, SubRegion number, and a brief description of the contents on the cover. 3. Remove the Folio gently from the shelf, and either carry it to a large table, or use the top of the Chart drawers. The charts in the Folio are flexible, and easy to carry – although some Folios are quite thick and heavier than others. Ask the Library Staff for help if you need assistance. 4. Untie the 4 ties, and open the cover. There will be a list of each of the charts which should be located in that Folio. 5. When you are done, please arrange the charts in the Folio according to the list, re-tie, and return the Folio to the correct shelf. 6. The Folios are arranged by Folio Number and Geographic SubRegion 7. Folios were developed in the 1700’s to protect a group of charts, and make them easier to handle. Folios are still sold today, to keep charts orderly on board – or in a library. 1/9/2018 6 1/9/2018 7 Chart Cabinet Drawers Reference Only Regions: 1 and 7–9 USA & Canada, Indonesia, Australia & New Zealand, Oceania, South China Sea Geographic Drawer Region Subregion Area Locator 1 Michigan Maps and Miscellaneous US Gulf of Mexico to Cape Hatteras 2 1 11 Florida to North Carolina NOAA North Carolina to New York 3 1 12 & Connecticut River NOAA 4 1 13 New York to Maine NOAA US Great Lakes, St. Lawrence River, & Lake 5 1 14 Champlain NOAA Canada St. Lawrence River, Gulf of St. Lawrence, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, 6 1 14 New Brunswick Canadian Hydrographic Charts 1202-1339, 1409-1435, 4003-4474 Newfoundland, Labrador, 7 1 14 Canadian Hydrographic Charts 4506-5031 8 7 71 Western Indonesia DMA 9 7 72 - 73 Central and Eastern Indonesia DMA 10 7 74 - 76 Australia and New Zealand DMA 10 8 81 - 83 Oceania SW Pacific DMA 10 9 91 - 93 South China Sea, Philippines, Malaysia DMA Framed above the File Drawers: Chart 14500 Great Lakes including depth & drainage basin Great Lakes NOAA Historical Chart, from 1755 Partie Occidentale de la Nouvelle France ou du Canada 1/9/2018 8 How to find a chart in the DRAWERS: a. Look in the Index online or in the 3-ring notebook for the DRAWER number. b. Find the drawer and open it. Drawer Numbers on the left, Drawer Subregion numbers are on the right. c. The chart number is usually somewhere near the front of the drawer. d. You may need to pull the chart drawer all the way out, and “fold back” some of the charts on top of the pile to search the charts lower down in the drawer. e. Lift the individual chart or a small group of adjacent charts out of the drawer, keeping the others more or less neatly arranged – this takes a little practice DRAWER # Region # 1/9/2018 9 f. Use a large table in the library or the top of the chart drawer cabinet to layout the chart(s) of interest. g. Getting the charts back into the drawer in order, may take a little patience. The easiest technique is to fold back all of the charts above the one you are returning, gently wiggle and lift the folded back group to allow the chart to slip into place. h. Wiggle a few charts at a time, to align their positions so they do not extend beyond the drawer, and the drawer can then be easily closed. i. If you need some help, ask one of the Library staff. j. It may be easier to carefully lift the entire stack to the top of the cabinet, and then replace all the charts in small batches in order in the drawer… 1/9/2018 10 Chart Cabinet Drawers Reference Only (no Checkout) DRAWER 1 Michigan Maps, Miscellaneous Michigan Maps: Forest Service: Hiawatha National Forest and Escanaba River State Forest Geological Survey Lower and Upper Michigan Isle Royale Topography DNR - by Section Delta County – West and East Parts Schoolcraft County – South Part Alger County - East Part and Schoolcraft County - North Part Alger County- West Part Dickinson County Baraga County Marquette County – Southeast, Southwest, North Part Menominee County- South and North Parts County Maps: Delta, Marquette and Menominee Great Lakes Fleets - Color Identification Lake Michigan Dive Chart Shipwreck Chart of the Great Lakes Miscellaneous: US Inland Navigable Rivers Map of states and rivers impacted by Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway and Major Connecting Navigable Waterway Distances North Atlantic Ocean North Atlantic Ocean, Southern Sheet (NGA #120) Pilot Charts of the North Atlantic (monthly wind rose) World Map, Mercator Projection Used for navigation – a straight line shows the true angle of direction (but not the distance) Areas and shapes are distorted, especially near the north and south poles (Greenland looks larger than Africa, but is actually 14 times smaller) www.theguardian.com 1/9/2018 11 Region 1: United States and Canada DRAWER 2: 0526 North America, Atlantic and Pacific Coasts Subregion 11: Gulf of Mexico to North Carolina to Straits of Florida - Charts 11006 to 11555 11006 Key West to the Mississippi River 11009 North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida - Cape Hatteras to Straits of Florida - Sailing Chart 8/7/99 11013 Florida - Straits of Florida and Approaches - Sailing Chart 4/1/02 11325 Galveston Bay Entrance NH 15-9 Gulf of Mexico - New Orleans Topo Map 11363 Chandeleur and Breton Sounds, Louisiana 11420 Florida - Havana to Tampa Bay - Sailing Chart 1/13/01 11434 Florida - Sombrero Key to Dry Tortugas - Sailing Chart 3/21/92 11438 Florida - Dry Tortugas 8/11/90 11439 Florida - Sand Key to Rebecca Shoal 12/13/97 11441 Florida - Key West Harbor and Approaches 10/4/97 11442 Florida - Sombrero Key to Sand Key 2/10/01 11445 Florida - Bahia Honda Key to Sugarloaf Key 3/31/01 11446 Florida - Intracoastal Waterway, Sugarloaf Key to Key West 3/31/01 11447 Florida - Key West Harbor

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

  • Micmac Migration to Western Newfoundland
    MICMAC MIGRATION TO WESTERN NEWFOUNDLAND DENNIS A. BARTELS Department of Anthropology Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, and OLAF UWE JANZEN Department of History Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, ABSTRACT / RESUME The Micmac of Cape Breton are known to have had a long history of seasonal contact with Newfoundland. It is generally accepted that they resided there permanently by the early 19th century. The authors review the available evidence and conclude that the permanent occupation of Newfoundland by the Micmac began in the 1760s. On sait que les Micmac de cap-Breton ont eu une longue histoire du contact saisonnier avec la Terre-Neuve. Il est généralement admis qu'ils y habitèrent en permanence au début du XIXe siècle. Les auteurs examinent l'évidence disponible et concluent que l'occupation permanente de la Terre-Neuve par les Micmac a commencé dans les années 1760. 72 Dennis A. Bartel/Olaf Uwe Janzen INTRODUCTION It is generally conceded that the Micmac of Cape Breton Island were a maritime-adapted people with sufficient seafaring skills to extend their territorial range as far into the Gulf of St. Lawrence as the Magdalen Islands and as far east as St. Pierre and Miquelon.1 By the eighteenth century, the Micmac were able to maintain a persistent presence in southern and southwestern Newfoundland. Some scholars have concluded from this that southwestern Newfoundland could have been a regular part of the territorial range of the Cape Breton Micmac since prehistoric times.2 In the absence of archaeological evidence to support such a conclusion, others, such as Marshall (1988) and Upton (1979:64) are unwilling to concede more than a seasonal exploitation of Newfoundland.

  • A Suggested Blueprint for the Development of Maritime Archaeological Research in Namibia Bruno E.J.S
    Journal of Namibian Studies, 2 (2007): 103–121 ISSN: 1863-5954 A suggested blueprint for the development of maritime archaeological research in Namibia Bruno E.J.S. Werz Abstract During the last few decades, maritime archaeology has developed into an internationally accepted field of specialisation within the discipline of archaeology. It has, however, only gained academic recognition in Southern Africa since the late 1980s, when a lecturing post for maritime archaeology was established at the University of Cape Town. This resulted in initial efforts being focused on South Africa. Now, however, the time has come to expand the development of maritime archaeology to neighbouring countries. Due to various positive factors – including the presence of an important research potential as well as growing interest and positive contributions by some organisations and private individuals – Namibia provides a fertile ground to extend the field of operations. This article first summarises the objectives and methodology of maritime archaeological research in general; then it offers suggestions as to how to establish this research specialisation in Namibia, bearing in mind local circumstances. What is Maritime Archaeology? Maritime archaeology developed by means of an evolutionary process from underwater salvage, treasure hunting, the collecting of antiquities and the kind of archaeological work that was done until the early twentieth century. During the 1960s, the field became an area of specialisation within the discipline of archaeology. This period saw a growing involvement of professional archaeologists, the rudimentary development of research designs, the improvement of diving equipment, and the application of techniques that facilitated work in an underwater environment. The initial emphasis, however, was on the latter.1 As a result, the field did not obtain widespread support from its terrestrial counterparts, where efforts were generally directed at solving specific research problems.

  • DESERTMED a Project About the Deserted Islands of the Mediterranean
    DESERTMED A project about the deserted islands of the Mediterranean The islands, and all the more so the deserted island, is an extremely poor or weak notion from the point of view of geography. This is to it’s credit. The range of islands has no objective unity, and deserted islands have even less. The deserted island may indeed have extremely poor soil. Deserted, the is- land may be a desert, but not necessarily. The real desert is uninhabited only insofar as it presents no conditions that by rights would make life possible, weather vegetable, animal, or human. On the contrary, the lack of inhabitants on the deserted island is a pure fact due to the circumstance, in other words, the island’s surroundings. The island is what the sea surrounds. What is de- serted is the ocean around it. It is by virtue of circumstance, for other reasons that the principle on which the island depends, that the ships pass in the distance and never come ashore.“ (from: Gilles Deleuze, Desert Island and Other Texts, Semiotext(e),Los Angeles, 2004) DESERTMED A project about the deserted islands of the Mediterranean Desertmed is an ongoing interdisciplina- land use, according to which the islands ry research project.

This was the second series of open consultations with inshore fish harvesters, the first series took place in the fall and winter of 2017-18. The purpose of these consultations was to provide a forum for individual harvesters and their representatives to raise concerns and ask questions During the meetings on a wide range of fishery management topics. The meetings featured fish harvesters asked flexible agendas and allowed significant harvester participation. questions and offered During the meetings fish harvesters asked questions and offered their their perspectives about perspectives about various aspects of fisheries management and science. Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) also took the opportunity to address various aspects of the questions and concerns raised during the previous consultations in fisheries management 2017-18. and science. Topics discussed and questions raised in the meetings centred upon five general themes: • The timing of fishery openings and closures; • The way fishery overlap privileges near the boundaries of major fishing zones are managed; • Sharing arrangements for fish stocks, particularly those in which harvesters from neighbouring regions are allocated greater shares than harvesters from Newfoundland and Labrador; • Permitting more buddy-up arrangements; and • Vessel length restrictions and vessel replacement rules.

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.
