Northland seems to be emulating Pioneer in odd place references. Her first is the Brotchie Ledge Light. You have a reference to the Ledge, a submerged reef, but not the light. However, 2 separate beacons have been installed, a short distance apart as this history of the installation recounts.

Northland sailed in 1951 but I only quote to 2 decimal places in the transcription so the change of site won't matter but I leave it to you what you put on Geonames.
