Black-Deeps.

The Black-deeps is a Channel that lyeth on the North-West side of the Pan-sands, * 1.1 Girdler, and the Long∣sand, and runneth between them and the Shivering-sand, Knock-John, and the Sunk: The westermost part of this Channel is but a mile in breadth, viz. Betwixt the Shivering-sand and the Pan-sands, * 1.2 and all along the inside of the Shivering-sand, you will have about ten fathom; and on the outward side, towards the Girdler, several various depths, but none less than seven fathom; and all down the midst of the Channel you will have about fourteen and fifteen fathom, unless it be toward the Sunk, where you will have ten fathom. The nor∣thermost Mouth of this Channel, is near five miles be∣twixt the end of the Sunk and the Long-sand-head.
