Zoetersbout / Zijpe is a name used for the Zoetersbout entry on the Zijpe, so this is drawn as the Zoetersbout site rather than a 2 km drift to the Zijpe coordinates. Zoetersbout on the Zijpe at Bruinisse: the Duikerstrap over the dike, the stortsteen off the dike head, the sepia sticks and the rek, depth contours (15, 20 and 30 m, with 5 and 10 m assumed for the two shallower bands) and the two usual loops, with the preferred clockwise route to the south-west. Stairs, shoreline and channel buoys from OpenStreetMap; object depths follow the bands. Positions are approximate, about 20 m.

Not a traverse, whatever the name suggests: Zoetersbout / Zijpe is simply what duikplaats.net and duikersgids call the Zoetersbout entry — the Zijpe is the channel it sits on. A drift from Zoetersbout to the Zijpe would be 2.3 km, which is not what this was. Tidal, and dived on the slack.

One dive, 21 October 2007, to 11.1 m.
