Default Bowditch Americal Practical Navigator Book Questions

Hello:

I have a real old vers. of Bowditch (1960's), and was thinking of getting a
new copy.
I noticed that it's all on-line now, but there's still nothing like a book.
I guess this really dates me !

Hence these questions, please:

a. Is there still a separate volume for the math tables, or are they all
incorporated into
the one volume now ?

b. is the 2002 the latest vers. ?
any rumors about a newer one coming out next year or so ?

c. very confused over who actually publishes this book anymore.
My old one was via the Hydrographic office.

I see the new one, at least Amazon's one, is : "Bowditch," offered by
Celestaire and Paradise Cay Publications"
Who is Celestaire or Paradise Cay ?

d. Is there another version by some Gov't Office ?
I thought I once saw someting about the National Imaging Center
publishing a version ?

e. Are there actually two versions being published ?

f. Are many of the pages still in color ?
Do they still come with those really nice plastic insert star charts ?

Much thanks,
Bob
