Check this out, NOAA charts overlaid on Goggle Earth. *Note:
Transparency adjustments in upper right.

You got something better than this link. I always get an error message
and can't use the transparency functions.

Also if you go to their webs site it looks like you have to buy their
software and build up a mapping/charting system. They do not seem to
do the mapping.

"Your problem :
Your goal is to publish maps or orthophotos on the Internet.

But, classical webmapping solutions appear inaccessible because of
their price and/or their technical implementation.

The solution :
GeoGarage, spatial image server."
