Also over the "dutch": WOOLY and JUMPA.

And there used to be some additional sporting blokes out on the Tasman (haven't got the right chart in front of me to check - are they still there?): GILLY and TUBBY

Have always liked FILET of FLAKE over the Bight.

ALICE SADEL SARAH running south of Alice, and SARAP-IGLET east of SY on the way to Tahiti, have always made me look at the chart again.....

Also SE of Alice: I've always tended to pronounce IDANU a little like "I don't know" when position reporting.... (ok, yes, a little childish, forgive me).

And GAFER - oh, for the old spelling back, namely GAFFA. Did someone take offence at the original spelling and GAFER is more acceptable?!
