Bottonj a fandy Owze, H W. from La Bodega; being fix 

 or feven Houfes, for the Conveniency of unlading of Ships, Anchorage at 

 that choofeto anchor there, tho' two Leagues diftant fronv Paraca * 

 Pifco, rather than go up before the Town, becaufe the 

 Sea runs fo high at the Shore, that it is aimoft impoffible 

 to land there in the Day-time; however, fometimes in 

 the Morning it is polfible to land there with a good Hawfer, 

 or fmall Cable, and a good Anchor, but it is always with 

 ♦ much Trouble and Danger. The Ships that anchor be- 

 fore the Town^ wood and water half a League farther to 

 the Northward, in the Hollow., through which the River 

 of Pifco runs, and thofe that anchor at Paraca, do it on 

 the Strand, half a League to the S.E. of the Houfes, as is 

 done at Arica. 



The Road of Pifco is large enough to contain a whole Pifco M*M 

 Navy Royal. It is open to the Northward, whence no 

 dangerous Wind blows in that Latitude, and Ships are 

 ihelter'd from the ufual Winds, which blow frorii S. S. W. 

 toS.E. If they would careen, they may go up to the 

 Bottom of the JJay of JFWcu, where there is no rough Sea,
