The Race, a notable channel known for its strong tidal currents, dominates this maritime survey where Long Island Sound meets the Atlantic Ocean. The map documents a critical corridor for navigation, featuring the southwestern tip of Fishers Island and the isolated outcrops of Great Gull Island and Little Gull Island. These landforms, along with hazardous underwater features like Race Rock, Valiant Rock, and Constellation Rock, serve as essential markers for mariners navigating the eastern entrance of the sound.
