 </span></blockquote>the best census of the eez tripoints both actual & theoretical<br/>
tho not technically a list <br/>
is in the bp file entitled<br/>
international boundaries xls<br/>
where as many as 338 or 342 or 346 sea tripoints are given <br/>
in column e<br/>
<br/>
those totals were subsequently discussed in messages 6405 & 6413 & 6415<br/>
especially in terms of nailing down the few loose ends among them<br/>
but i dont believe these were ever completely resolved<br/>
<br/>
a try at an actual list was made in message 247<br/>
but this was crude & lame by comparison with the later census<br/>
<br/>
still <br/>
checking & coordinating & refining these 2 tries<br/>
if it doesnt make you as nuts as it did us<br/>
may be the best available route to where you apparently want to go<br/>
<br/>
however there is no known breakdown between actual & theoretical ones<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
territorial sea tripoints are much rarer than eez tripoints<br/>
& the latest try at a roundup of these<br/>
conducted in messages 1768 & 1773<br/>
came up completely empty at the time<br/>
tho some very few have been created since<br/>
while a small but unknown number of theoretical ones still await <br/>
actualization</div>
