Description:
|
|
| Marked along the coasts of the Cape Verdi islands, in the form of small black anchors, are the areas in which best to moor a boat. The single black crosses mark areas of shoals and things to avoid when dropping anchor.
This small map would be part of a pocket atlas, most likely kept in the library of a wealthy family. [AFR4924] |
