All good except for San pedro which i could not find, and the Narrows in the magellan Strait. Is it Kirke Narrows or the Santa Maria Channel? or none of these ?

Hi all,

I wish I had known about this thread before I started work on my own google maps Patrick O'Brian project. Like you I thought this was something that was calling out to be done, and obviously my initial web searching was a bit dubious because I never found this thread. Here is my ongoing project :

Anyway, having done some of this mapping I know how hard it is to fix the locations inthe book accurately and in detail, so my hearty congratulations to the prodigious fine work that has been done here ...

Beautifully done. Your maps really helps to envision the voyages better than Harbors and High Seas.

Mouth of l'Authie = Chaulieu?

I tried for ages to find where Chaulieu was.
All i drew was a blank. So it seems it was a figment of POB's imagination.

I am just having a look at your site.. well done..

Thanks very much Ferdy,

Yep the mouth of L'Authie seems like the closest fit geographically to the location described in Post Captain, but this definately a ficitonal port and the action described is probably loosely based upon a cutting out action of the Dart at Dunkirk, a bit further north along the coast.

P.S. I love all the work you have done at your tall ships website, as something of a lubber, it is a mine of information ...

Thanks Hill,

I didn't like some of the gaps in the Harbors and High seas maps. I think they are very nicely drawn and look pretty, but I like the accuracy that google maps gives you and the ability to annotate every little bit of detail that you can glean from the books.

no, thank you..

I cannot work out where Pulo Prabang could be situated at. I know it is fictional(very fictional). Bangka is correct and Pulau Seribu is as well. Pulau Prabang should be in the Riau's somewhere but it is not possible from his ethnographic description.
And i found his whole description of that island to be more fantasy than anything else.
I do not think he knew that area of the world very well.
Where does high harbor and seas(sic) say where pulau prabang is situated??
