Hi,
Just bought some charts off ebay for Newfoundland. I went to ebay and searched for "chart newfoundland" and found this fellow who sold me disks for $25. Also included Sea Clear, which is a free download in any case, but is convenient to have in one place. Just passing it on. Howard |

It would give me a warmer feeling if these charts could be validated before
using them. The notices to Mariner should be checked against the charts. Older charts can be usable if you know where you stand with them. Either way before going on a trip Its a good thing to verify all the notices and to re-enforce them with the local knowledge. Going to Newfoundland by sailboat requires plotting the locations and movement of icebergs. "Howard" wrote in message ervers.com... Hi, Just bought some charts off ebay for Newfoundland.

A few years ago there was a P2P network that ended up with a bunch of random charts on it with the geo-referencing files altered to give a wrong position. The site no longer exists. SaltAir |
