695.1 | Chart Kits | AD::GIBSON | | Wed Apr 27 1988 12:57 | 21 |
| What a coincidance.
I was just looking into some Chart kits and the deal is like this.
These charts are copys of the N.O.A.A. charts and have been compiled
into a book suitable for easy use on the boat.
They have differant packs for differant areas .
I am going to order the Chart packs that cover from Canada down
to Block Island.(off New port R.I.) and they cost $84.95 if bought
one kit at a time.
If I order a Minimum of 6 Chart Kits I can get them for $69.95 Ea.
Why don't we get as many people together as possible who would like
to order and send in to get the discount.
Sign Up. Walt

THAT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA...LET ME CHECK WITH MY BROTHER-IN-LAW.
IT WAS HE THAT WANTED THE CHARTS AND I WAS TRYING TO GET THEM FOR
HIM AS A GIFT. I'LL ASK HIM IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING HE WOULD
LIKE TO GET INTO.
WHERE DID YOU GET THE INFORMATION ON THE CHART KITS? DO THEY
HAVE KITS FOR JUST THE MASS/NH COASTLINE? I WONDER HOW DEFINED
THE CHARTS ARE OF EACH AREA.

| The charts are very good. Excact copys from Uncle Sam. Include
Loran C lines and cover the whole coast area mentioned.

Bruce has the best place. I went there just two weeks ago to
get a new chart. The individual charts seem to be a better scale
for me to read. I only use the kits for general info but do have
an old one.

| The kits are good but I still rely on the full charts.
I have a kit for the Maine coast which I use to plan occational
trips but if I intend to do much traveling in one area I rely on
the full charts. Although the charts in the kits are full scale
they are chopped up to fit on a page. It is pretty easy to want
info which is on two or more pages. Of course you could go broke
trying to get all the charts for a wide area so the kits fill the
bill in that regard. I recommend both.
By the way, I ordered some charts direct from NOAA. I got the
address either in BOATS or SAILING notes. I'll look it up if you
are interested.
