I'm not sure exactly what's in these files (and can't recall the source) but it would definitely be nice to be able to read depth contours, so I'm logging this as an issue.

> library(oce)
> bathy <- read.oce('~/Dropbox/DepthContours/DepthContours.shp')
Error in read.coastline.shapefile(file, ...) :
can only deal with shape-type 5 (polygon) in this version of the software
