Oceanside reef coordinates in Lowrance format
 

I got the Artificial Reef coordinates from the DFG website but having difficulty keying into my Lowrance. DFG is in degrees, minutes, seconds but Lowrance wants degrees and minutes with the minutes down to 2 decimals instead of seconds.

I tried converting using an online conversion webpage while paddling last time, resulting finding nothing. I’ve heard/read here on BWE that the reefs are difficult to find anyway.

Any suggestions, education or coordinates would be welcome please.

Which AR?

Seconds/60 should give you a decimal value for minutes, I believe.

But I’m open to suggestions if other reefs are better and within distance.

So - here's the issue with AR2. The DFG coordinates get you in place, they won't put you right on structure. I'm a fan of the free Navionics app for navigating to specific rockpiles.

I've had good success at rockpile 3B on a rising tide. 33 12.625 N, 117 25.872 W

Good hunting!
