Usually locations like "inside, below, above, outside" are purposefully ambiguous. When you are working an area and sharing info with other people, you use a general location that was pre-agreed upon, then only talk about your position in relation to an undisclosed reference point.

For example in tuna fishing you always hear people say something like "I'm 10 below and 5 inside" which means nautical miles in relation to the reference coordinate. Then you can blast out your position and only those with the reference location can find it.

I've fished LJ when inside meant 200' off the condo, and conversely there are times when outside meant 70' in the kelp.

Also, the true NWC is acutually south west of the northrnmost kelp edge. Just to confuse the issue further...
