Description of the Humber, Lynn,

A decorative woodcut initial 'E' is depicted, adorned with foliage and intertwining vines, typical of early printed maritime guides.
Firstly, to sail from the open sea toward the deeps of Lynn original: "Lindt", likely King's Lynn: keep the long, blunt tower between the two long towers; then you are in the correct fairway of Lynn. When the chapel then lies East of you, and the trees come over the Inner Hook at West Chapel Possibly a reference to Chapel St Leonards or a similar coastal landmark near the Wash, then steer Southeast and Southeast by South toward the first buoy; then you are in the East Deep of Lynn. Then steer south-southwest and south by west until the first beacon. From there, proceed south-southwest to the second beacon. And further to the third beacon, steering southwest by west. Continue toward the two buoys, steering southwest and southwest by west, until you round the hook of the land. From there, one may run through the sands into the West Gate a "gate" or "gat" is a navigable channel through a sandbank or between islands, and sail out again by the buoys and marks. This West Gate extends into the sea Northeast and northeast by east.

And if anyone desires to sail into the Boston original: "Bolston" Deep, he should run along the coastline and sail in close to the forward beach; in this way, one cannot run aground on the Ellen-hook. When the three trees are near St. Somkal Possibly a corruption of St. Botolph, whose famous "Stump" tower is a primary landmark for Boston or the pointed tower, then the Ellen-hook lies seaward of you; then one may sail in three fathoms a unit of depth equal to six feet along the Land-Leek likely the "Land-leke" or shore-side channel until the River of Boston. One may run back out to sea between Ellen-hook and Long Sand in three fathoms, and this passage extends east-northeast into the sea.

Likewise, to sail upon the Hull-water The River Humber, one should enter by the North Hook of Ravenspurn A significant medieval port on the Spurn peninsula that was eventually submerged by coastal erosion; for it is shallow and flat on the south side. Once you have passed the flats, you should veer toward the other side toward Grimsby original: "Grümby" behind the sandbanks, and anchor there at six or seven fathoms. If you wish to travel inward toward Hull, you should sail along the south side west-northwest to the end of the sands, and then turn northward up into the River of Hull. The channel original: "gatt" of Hull extends from the outside in a west-southwest and west by south direction.

Likewise, Bridlington original: "Barilton" lies in an inlet; one may ride at anchor there during a north and northwest wind. Three miles north of Flamborough original: "Flamborch" lies the inlet of Filey original: "Phila"; one may lie at anchor between the head of Filey and the Filey Brigg original: "kråcke", referring to the rocky peninsula known as Filey Brigg (which is a rock formation that stays underwater at high tide) during a North-Northeast wind. Two miles north of Filey lies Scarborough original: "Scherenborch", which has two piers or jetties, behind which one may lie; however, one must sit dry Wait for the tide to go out, leaving the ship resting on the harbor floor at low water.
