Reading this warning
- Track line joining
- Introduces a route through a series of positions — a cable route, a tow's track or a survey line.

- How warnings write positions: degrees, a hyphen, then minutes, with N/S and E/W — 49-40.8N 003-43.8W.
- Wide berth requested
- Keep well clear — or, when a distance is given ("TWO MILE BERTH REQUESTED"), at least that far away.
- Cancellation reference
- A line that cancels an earlier warning by its number, such as CANCEL HYDROLANT 1085/12.
- HYDROLANT
- The U.S. long-range warning series for Atlantic waters outside NAVAREA IV, including the eastern Atlantic, the Mediterranean and adjoining seas.
- CANCEL THIS MSG
