(b) south-easterly along the geodesic to the northernmost point of the coastline at low water of Tween Island (18–008B);
(c) generally southerly and easterly along that coastline at low water to its easternmost point;
(d) easterly along the geodesic to the westernmost point of the coastline at low water of Middle Island (18–008D);
(e) generally southerly, south-easterly and easterly along that coastline at low water to its easternmost point;
(f) southerly along the geodesic to 18 09.188 S, 146 17.465 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(g) north-westerly along the geodesic to 18 09.091 S, 146 17.282 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(h) north-westerly along the geodesic to 18 08.973 S, 146 17.095 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(i) northerly along the geodesic to 18 08.866 S, 146 16.924 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);

(k) north-westerly along the geodesic to 18 08.727 S, 146 16.824 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(l) north-westerly along the geodesic to 18 08.662 S, 146 16.719 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(m) north-westerly along the geodesic to 18 08.520 S, 146 16.655 E (marked by no-anchoring marker);
(n) northerly along the geodesic to the point where the line began.
Note 1 Public moorings are located about the Brook Islands at the northern end of North Island (18–008A) and at the north-westerly edge of South Island (18–008C).
Note 2 Reef protection markers are used in the Brook Islands to protect the reef.
