Captain Roger ,, your off to Canada? International man of mystery!

Are you planning on cruising the outside (Halifax) side? Where is your
destination?

I took a look for you and there is a store named binnacle.com ( look up with
google ) and they have charts of Canada waters.

In fact, they sell a book ..

CRUISING GUIDE TO THE N.S. COAST 2005 4th Ed.
Product ID #14365



Their number is: 1-800- 224-3937

=============================

tell us more of this big trip. is this in the planning , maybe, could be,
stage or have you decided? That sounds like a real adventure.

...

I'm buying a Garmin 76Cx that takes the MicroSD preloaded chips. Any
pro's, cons, or opinons to buying the Canadian charts I'll need on CD vs
chips?

I'll also be buying paper for backup and trip planning. I won't have a
laptop on the boat where I'll be using the GPS display and charts together
(no comments on that please, it's another issue altogether).

Any good reason in that scenario to go with the CD instead of the
convienience of just sticking a chips in?

If you arrange a visitor slip at the Royal Nova Scotia Yyacht Squadron
ot the Armdale Yacht Club, you could walk to the Binnacle and back.
