Nantucket Sound dominates this maritime chart, where the coastal boundary of Barnstable Town meets the Atlantic waters of Cape Cod. The mapping focuses heavily on the underwater topography and hazards of the sound, documenting a series of significant nautical features including Collier Ledge, Hodges Rock, and the expansive Broken Ground. A clear transit corridor is marked by the Nantucket - Hyannis Ferry route, which threads through the shoals between Gazelle Rock and the mainland. In the northwestern corner, a small residential coastal pocket is detailed along the shoreline of Phinneys Bay and Crystal Lake. This area is defined by local thoroughfares such as Wianno Ave and E Bay Rd, providing a precise record of the developed waterfront and its proximity to the rocky seafloor that characterizes this stretch of the Massachusetts coast.
