The ones on the PGFC website are correct for quite a few of them (PGFC, Furuno & Hillarys), although CM is missing. If they're not to be found, either they have gone missing recently or you're using the wrong datum on your gps.

I should say that some of the other ones are probably where they're supposed to be, just I haven't personally checked (yamaha).

Not that big..

Hey Granta,

 the fads are not that big on the suface, could pass within a couple of hundred metres and you could miss it........

Best way is to pinpoint your GPS mark then work around the area

Were all those tiny tuna still out that way ?

Good Luck

Rick

 Look like this. Some new ones are a little more upmarket but basically the same thing.
