Official National Ocean Service Description:
The bench mark is a disk set in the concrete walkway surrounding the Municipal Pier parking lot, 1.74 m (5.7 ft) south of the north corner of the pier, 1.37 m (4.5 ft) SW of the NE face of the pier, and 1.07 m (3.5 ft) SE of the east face of the tide gage house.
This tidal benchmark was not half as amusing as our previous find near the "Testes" Restaurant parking area, but it was still a neat find right on the corner of the pier, next to the NOS tide gauge station. It poured, drizzled, and the sun came out all in the three minutes it took us to find and document this mark.
