Owen Bank
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Owen Bank is a wholly submerged atoll structure in the Chagos Archipelago. The reported location is 06°47'S, 070°14'E to 06°48'S, 070°15'E, thus the bank is the westernmost feature of the Chagos Archipelago. The closest islands are Danger Island on the Great Chagos Bank, and Île Sipaille in the Egmont Islands atoll, both of which are about 120 km East-North-East of Owen Bank.
This feature is not mentioned in the current Indian Ocean Pilot (see External link).
