- 

 To enter the port, coming in from sea, keep Fort 



Picam and Fort Brum in one, until you have the point 



of Olinda bearing N., then steer due K., until the cross 



of Patram is in one with the coco-nut trees on St. Amaro, 



then steer directly for the same cross of Patram, until 



you open the inner part of the reef above water, with 



Fort Picam to the southward, where you may come to 



anchor, or stand on to the southward into the harbour 



of Mosqueiro. 



To enter the channel for smaller vessels coming from 



sea, keep the same mark, Fort Picam and Fort Brum 



in one, until you are within a quarter of a mile of Fort 



Picam, then bring the two southern watch-towers on 



Fort Brum in one, you clearing the northern extremity 



of the reef above water, and hauling short round the 



same, keep the reef close aboard until you are in the 



harbour of Mosqueiro.
