Between the Chico Bank and the land, the least water you find is between the S.E. point and the coast; when the river is low, you have generally about 17 feet.
Having passed the church, you may keep farther from the shore, as you have likewise passed the Chico Bank; and keeping on your course E.S.E. you will see four ombu trees, being the last you will see.
After passing the last ombu trees, the shore is level, with shrubs, grass, turfs, and junks, until you make Point Indio, about 15 miles distant.
Point Indio is low level land, with only one tree on it; and to the S.E. you can see two large groves of tallow wood and espinillos.
These mounts are near Point Piedras and Point Indio.
From Point Indio, the S.E. part of the Ortiz Bank bears N. 30° E. by compass, distant about 14 miles.
