Richmond rock. The position of this
rock, reported to lie about 15 miles W. by
S. ’ S. from Cape Corrientes, was passed
over by Captain G.F. Emmons, of the ILS.S.
Ossipce, in April 1868: tlie weather being clear,
sea smooth, with a westerly swell, and a good
look-out kept, but no indications of shoal
ground were observed. The rock was also
carefully but unsuccessfully searched for by
the Saginaw in August and September 1861).
The pilots and coasters in the neighbourhood
do not believe in its existence.
Cucharitas reef, a dangerous ledge ex
tending to the south-west nearly 2 miles from
the coast, lies about 6 miles to the southward
of Cape Corrientes. The part above water
projects from the land south-west for about
1| miles, and consists of 3 or 4 small rocks,
against which the sea breaks heavily, and
also for a considerable distance outside tltem.
Two other sunken reefs are reported to lie
half a mile to the south-west of the rocks
above water. The land near this part of the
coast is low. but rises again at a short distanco
from the beach.
