When did they move Lundy?

I've just been reading about the new marine protection area around Lundy (http://www.motorboatsmonthly.co.uk/news/437924/lundy-island-is-first-marine-conservation-zone).
When did they move it to "Off Cornwall"?

The nearest point of land is Hartland Point which I think is in north Devon.

Exactly, Hartland is about 10 miles from Lundy. The Cornish border is, I think, about 5 miles south of Hartland. The ferry to Lundy goes from Ilfracombe and Bideford, both in north Devon. I sometimes wonder about the navigation of those mobo types!

Have they done a quick edit? Seems to say off North Devon now! Or am I blind? (Happens a lot!)

I allways thought Lundy was off Swansea

Thought Devon was just a vassal state of Cornwall...

A small town near Plymouth?

Judging by a certain poster's navigation exercises at the club last night, I am not at all surprised at this revelation.

I was far better than he.

Lundy is 3000 miles off Newfoundland.

The instructor said I was overcomplicating things.......

Could be worse, i flew the wrong side of Snowdon one night in cloud. I'd rather hit Lundy at 6knts than 200 if it has moved!
