<div id="ygrps-yiv-1907122895">i agree too<br/>
& that is precisely why the outcome of this past fridays icj decision is so<br/>
potentially groundbreaking<br/>
  er  i mean such a potential watershed development<br/>
& so earthshaking in a historical way<br/>
<br/>
but i cant digest or even follow it all yet<br/>

&gt;Peter, I think you are exactly correct, which is why such &quot;territorial sea<br/>
&gt;enclaves&quot; are so rare, perhaps totally non-existent. The 12-mile french<br/>
&gt;territorial sea zone around St. Pierre et Micquelon is not enclosed by<br/>
&gt;Canada&#39;s territorial waters.<br/>

&gt;&gt; But this is strange. The width of the band of territorial waters is the<br/>
&gt;&gt;same from the islands as<br/>
&gt;&gt; from the shore, I would think. The terr. waters of such an island can<br/>
&gt;&gt;only be completely surrounded<br/>
&gt;&gt; by the terr. waters of the mainland if the island is in a bay of which<br/>
&gt;&gt;the bay heads are so close<br/>
&gt;&gt; that the terr. waters close off the bay. But I would think in that case<br/>
&gt;&gt;the base line would pass in<br/>
&gt;&gt; between the bay heads, the water would become internal water, and the<br/>
&gt;&gt;island an enclave.<br/>
&gt;&gt;<br/>
&gt;&gt; In short: the terr. waters of the island (let&#39;s take the Namibian<br/>
&gt;&gt;example) reaches further west than<br/>
&gt;&gt; the terr. waters of Namibia.<br/>

&gt;&gt; &gt; Afetr Namibia&#39;s independence, S.Africa claimed many of the islands<br/>
&gt;&gt;along its<br/>
&gt;&gt; &gt; coast, often little more than stacks. The Terr. Sea they had was often<br/>
&gt;&gt; &gt; within that of Namibia fomr the sketch maps I have seen.<br/>
