This Imray’s series of charts for the Western Europe
Includes:: comprehensive & easy-to-use sailing charts published on rip-proof, waterproof paper- ideal to be used on small tables or in cockpits. They show detailed coastline & depth information, & are constantly corrected to reflect latest information. Designed primarily for yachtsmen, they are comprehensive without being unnecessarily cluttered. Each chart contains insets showing local harbours annotated with symbols indicating what facilities can be found there (marinas, mooring & berth facilities, fuel, water, chandlers, etc.). Charts are fully updated to the latest printing date, & often include further corrections on a separate sheet. Subsequent corrections can be found on the Imray website. On this chart, depths are shown in metres. Positions referring to WGS84 Datum, such as most GPS readings, can be plotted directly onto this chart. Base cartography uses contours, several levels of colour shading, & spot measurements to indicate depth relative to Lowest Astronomical Tide, including distinct colour highlighting for tidally-covered l&. A large number of hatchings & markings are used to indicate coast types, salt flats, marshl&, reefs, etc. Compliant IALA ‘ System A’ buoys are clearly marked, & indications of other navigational aides such as light floats are given where possible. Lighthouses are clearly marked with arcs of visibility. A complex & comprehensive system of symbols is used to indicate all types of submerged obstructions, including wrecks, rocks, pipelines & cables, with depths where known. Flood tides, eddies races, ebb tide streams & other current information is given. A wide range of symbols indicate onshore features, anchorages, harbour details & other points of note. Danger areas, restricted areas & traffic zones are all shown.
