I am looking for Newfoundland charts ... I am wondering is whether there
are any paper chart collections for the south coast of Newfoundland that
might be a bit more affordable than the individual Canadian Hydrographic
charts ...

You may want to check out this site and/or contact them. They are the
only cruisers I know that decided to winter over in Newfoundland.

Thanks, Jeff. Excellent info (as usual).


No problem. They should be more than happy to share their wisdom.

Were you able to spend a good
part of the summer on the Vineyard as you has mentioned earlier?

Yes, we spent the bulk of the summer on a mooring just off of the Owen
Park town pier, plus side trips to Newport and Wellfleet. How about
you? If you made it there you must have noticed us - we stood out as
usually the only cruising cat amongst a lot off classic wooden boats.
One of these days we're going to swallow the anchor and buy a cottage
there, and downsize the boat to something I'll actually sail everyday,
like a Marshall cat.
