2014 Map of Petit Manan Point OE S

About this map

The Atlantic Ocean dominates this maritime survey off the coast of Maine, where the jurisdictional boundary between Hancock County and Washington County splits the open water. This map captures a specific offshore area where navigation is dictated by isolated geological hazards. Several notable rock formations and ledges break the surface or lurk just beneath, including the aptly named Old Man, Big Black Ledge, and Little Black Ledge in the northwest. Further east, Moulton Ledge sits near the county line, marking a critical point for local mariners. The map provides a clear look at these maritime landmarks as they were recorded in the early 21st century, serving as a primary reference for the naming of these specific coastal features.
