ABSTRACT
The Island the authors found to trend in the direction of S60W for 6 or 8 miles & they had great overfalls in that situation having unequal Soundings & a strong Stream setting to windward which occasion'd a great Sea. After passing thro' the Race they had the wind to the eastward of the North which carried them over to the Corean Coast by Sunset, having run in the direction of N41W 22 miles, when the extremes bore from N20E to S67W, an Opening in a NW direction. The entrance to Pusan Hang about 3 miles, the Island of Tzima South to S23E & they had 60 fathoms water. Pusan has now been extensively reclaimed. Broughton was unable to ascertain that the coast to the west of the harbour was the 4-mile-long island of Yng Do, which separates the north harbour, where he anchored, from the smaller south harbour.
