Reading this warning

Survey operations: A research or survey vessel is mapping the seabed or water column, often while towing equipment.
Until further notice: The operation or danger has no scheduled end; the warning stays in force until a later message cancels it.
Position (degrees and minutes): 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.
