25° 55.8′ N · 113° 26.4′ W · approximate

Offshore banks crossed on the 160-250 nm hop from Asunción or Punta San Pablo to Cabo San Lázaro, where southbound boats often catch dinner.

Practical

Coordinate is a rough approximation on the rhumb line between The Log's Punta San Pablo waypoint (27 09.60' N 114 32.85' W) and Cabo San Lázaro, about 130 nm along that line, where The Log says the course crosses the Uncle Sam Banks; positions of the banks themselves were not published in our sources - check your chart. Every person aboard needs a Mexican fishing licence if any gear is carried.
