General Comments
CL1833/01 -- USPS chart correction letter indicates that there was a sunken wreck along the south shore of North Portland Harbor. The vessel Puffin has been there for several years and only the antennas were visible at the time of the USPS report. While the chart letter indicates that the position of the Puffin was 45/37/37N, 122/43/19W (NAD83) the position was discounted as inaccurate by the cartographer who placed the wreck at 45/37/22.7N, 122/43/19.2 (NAD83, scaled from chart 18526). (Entered 9/02 by CG). F00488-- 2002-2003 (OPR-N438-NRB); NOT INVESTIGATED, RETAIN AS CHARTED. (UPDATED CEH 6/05) H11859/08-- Wreck found with 100% shallow water multibeam within the AWOIS radius. At least depth was found in the MBES data to be -1.12m (-3.7ft) at MLLW at position 45/37/20.917N, 122/43/15.723W. The wreck covers and uncovers. The hydrographer recommends charting the wreck as depicted in the S-57 feature file and removing the PA annotation from the raster chart.
