Todd charts in Co Down have admiralty charts of the area, I have one to be honest you will not find many marks of it, local knowledge is best, hoskins channel for tope the conemara wreck for general and thats about it.

I have hoskins channel marked out on my hand held GPS, and teh wrecks. My mate has got a NAV5505 I'll have to use it for a few more marks.

Cheers for letting me know I'm waisting my time with the map.

hi Connor
hoskins channel is easy just go past haulboline lighthouse to the next set of bouys and steer off to the right at about 45 degress for a mile or so, conemara is go to last pair of bouys and hang 90 degrees left for 300-500 yards its always littered with pots in the summer time
