Sail Rock (Heard Island)
Sail Rock is a rock lying 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) northwest of Shag Island and 7 nautical miles (13 km; 8.1 mi) north of Heard Island. This rock, though positioned several miles too far westward, appears to have been first shown on an 1860 sketch map compiled by Captain , American sealer operating in the area during this period. It was more accurately charted and named on an 1874 chart by the Challenger expedition.
