Post by e46hoodrich »

hey guys im looking at some nautical charts and i got the coordinates to the artificial reef out of dania where they threw the AJACKS,LIMESTONE'S,MODULES,REEFBALLS,& TETRAHEDRONS.

See above link for the booklet charts for the Atlantic coast. Chart 11470 is for Port Everglades and surrounding areas. Most 'fish havens' are artificial reefs. you just can't anchor there or disturb them...
