		The Serranilla Bank Lighthouse, inhabited today, stands on a corall ledge near 15N48 and 79W50, in the southwest approach to the bank.

		In the case of Serranilla Bank, the situation is even more complicated than in the case of Bajo Nuevo Bank because of the relative close proximity of Serranilla Bank to Honduras, probably evoking or having evoked claims by Honduras for Serranilla Bank.

	Lighthouses of Colombia
		Colombia also administers the territory of San Andrés y Providencia, which includes a scattering of islands and banks in the southwestern corner of the Caribbean Sea, north of Panama and east of Nicaragua.
		The Serrana and Roncador Banks were formerly claimed and occupied by the U.S.; the islands reverted to Colombia in 1981 after the U.S. gave up its claims in a 1972 treaty.
		(The status of Serranilla Bank and Bajo Nuevo is less clear; the U.S. Department of State reiterated the American claim in December 2003, but that statement has now disappeared from the Department of the Interior's web site.) All these islands are also claimed by Nicaragua, and Bajo Nuevo, at least, is claimed by Jamaica.

		The last sighting of the seal at the Keys was at Key West in 1922, and that animal was shot.
		The last known sighting in the world was in 1952 on Serranilla Bank in the western Caribbean.
		Wildlife biologist Karl W. Kenyon carried out a 4,000-mile aerial search for the seal in 1973, and wrote in May 1980: "My reluctant conclusion is that the Caribbean Monk Seal became extinct soon after the last one was observed in 1952" (Kenyon 1980).

	SCS: Caribbean Monk Seal (Monachus tropicalis) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The species is thought to have originally inhabited the beaches, cays and reefs of the Caribbean, including at least the Greater Antilles, the northern Lesser Antilles, the Bahamas, the northeastern coasts of Central America, Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and the Florida Keys.
		The last remaining colony is believed to have been at Serranilla Bank, halfway between Nicaragua and Jamaica.
		The Caribbean monk seal was hunted for its blubber, to make oil, and for its meat ever since Western ships explored the area, Columbus' ship itself killing eight "sea wolves" in 1495.

		The Central Bank resorted to interest rate hikes and tight monetary policy to defend the peso against pressure from Colombia's worsening trade and fiscal deficits.
		President PASTRANA'S well-respected financial team is working to deal with the myriad economic problems the country faces, including the highest unemployment level in decades and a fiscal deficit of close to 5% of GDP in 1998.

		We passed between the Serranilla Bank and Alice Shoal.
		As we passed between the Bank and Shoal in waters 1200 meters deep, water can be seen breaking over the Shoals, and on a clear day a couple of old shipwrecks can be visible just above the water.
		Once clear, we took a south-southwesterly course and went round the Roncador Bank at a minimum distance of 5 nautical miles and at this point head directly southwest taking us directly to Puerto Limon, Costa Rica.
