I just noticed that USCG Chart No. 1 is no longer available in print.
It is now available as an 85 meg zipped download..... which turns into
about 30 PDF files of over 100 megs..... and, of course, are in
color.... if you'd like to print the roughly 100 pages in color.

Sheesh.... that is bound to enhance safety.

I can't imagine Chart #1 being as useful in b&w. It lists nav markers,
etc, and color is very important when recognizing most of those.
