Anyone able to decipher what the deuce is going on here? The two convoy approach routes from west and east seem fairly obvious - presumably N1, N2, N3 and EA1, EA2 etc are buoys? The way the dark marks entering Southampton match the channel suggests those are also buoys? The eastern gate through the boom is pretty obvious. Beyond that, my limited knowledge quickly expires.
Rob, From memory there is a clearer map of the Solent here; either for the D-Day assembly or the anti-submarine defences.
