Precision Data for High-Stakes Navigation
Weighing 1.9 kg, this 14th edition (2016) or 15th edition (2025) publication is meticulously curated to address the unique challenges of the region, from shifting ice conditions to complex tidal currents. It includes coordinates spanning latitudes 45.33°N to 59.98°N and longitudes 20°W to 65°W, providing comprehensive coverage of Newfoundland’s rugged shores and Labrador’s remote inlets. The guide’s detailed hydrographic data—such as depth soundings, seabed composition, and magnetic variation—enables mariners to avoid hazards like uncharted shoals or submerged rocks, which are prevalent in these waters.
Operational Intelligence for Ports and Anchorage
Beyond coastal navigation, NP050 offers in-depth port profiles, including terminal specifications, cargo-handling facilities, and local maritime regulations. For example, the guide outlines pilotage requirements for the Port of Corner Brook, where draft restrictions and tidal windows demand precise planning. High-resolution photographs and annotated coastal views further aid in visual identification of landmarks, reducing reliance on electronic systems in areas with limited GPS coverage. This level of detail is critical for vessels transiting the Labrador Sea, where weather and ice conditions can change rapidly.
