Using a 1km resolution bathymetry file, depth contours were created at 10m intervals using ArcToolbox's Contour Tool.

Applying the Definition Query's Query Builder, the 240m contour polyline was isolated and exported as a shapefile. The completed polyline was converted to a polygon using Arctoolbox's Feature to Polygon Tool. (ArcToolbox<Data Management Tools<Feature<Feature to Polygon) Using Arctoolbox's Smooth Polygon Tool, the polygon was smoothed using a Bezier algorithm.
