Default Blue Chart CD revision cycle

Does anyone know when the next Blue Chart CD revison is due? Neither store
I asked knew although Hamilton Marine recommended that I wait until the last
minute next spring to buy it.

It would be nice to have it earlier for winter dreaming but nicer to have
the latest when I load it on my computer.

BTW I did get Metro Guide for road trips this winter. The title made me a
bit concerned about rural area coverage and I was told it could be spotty
out in the sticks. However, it has the dirt road that runs into my family's
six cottage summer colony and you can't ask for much more local detail than
that. It did miss the driveway to my brother's cottage which shows up on
Maptech and other online maps but, nothing is perfect. OTOH, it doesn't
show our driveway as a through road to the next street as does almost every
other map in existance (including DeLorme produced here in Maine), a fact
that often brings us puzzled people sitting in front of our house staring at
their Maine Map and Guide or GPS.
