The 2001 Edition of Pub. 151, Distances Between Ports, supersedes all previous editions. Distances in this table are in nautical miles based on the International Nautical Mile of approximately 6,076.1 feet. Nautical miles may be converted to statute miles of 5,280 feet by multiplying by 1.15. (See conversion table at back of book). The positions listed for Ports are central positions that most represent each port. The distances are between positions shown for each port and are generally over routes that afford the safest passage. Most of the distances represent the shortest navigable routes, but in some cases, longer routes, that take advantage of favorable currents, have been used. In other cases, increased distances result from routes selected to avoid ice or other dangers to navigation, or to follow required separation schemes.
