They still don't have the North Pacific pilot charts in PDF
format yet, as well as a few other oceans (Indian I think?)

Screw .pdf, I hope they make plain graphics files avail also (YMMV).

Yes we are blessed to have this stuff furnished this way. Do you have
any idea what I paid for hardcopies of Bowditch & the HO pubs in 1965
as textbooks - even with a MARAD subsidy involved?

I wonder when we get to d/l the free new $3,000 sextant. :-)
