I just noticed that USCG Chart No. 1 is no longer available in print.
It is now available as an 85 meg zipped download..... which turns into
about 30 PDF files of over 100 megs..... and, of course, are in
color.... if you'd like to print the roughly 100 pages in color.

Sheesh.... that is bound to enhance safety.

I can't imagine Chart #1 being as useful in b&w. It lists nav markers,
etc, and color is very important when recognizing most of those.

Agreed, it would be useless in B&W, my point was that you had to have
a color printer to reproduce it.

....and a 50 gallon drum of printer ink.

And a couple of packages of paper because you know it's not going to
print properly the first time through.

Sometimes, the cost cutters just carry things way too far. This is
the proper province of the government and they should be printing it
or jobbing it out and offering it printed.

Well, lookee what I found.
