[Paddlewise] Acetate copies of maps/charts

I have used some of the B&W charts on ocean trips for several years and
they hold up very well.  Another advantage is you can easily make
multiple copies of the charts for others in your group.

An additional plus is that you can isolate a section of a chart and have
it enlarged on the acetate.  If you do this make sure that a section of
the scale is enlarged too.  I have had excellent success with both
marine charts and shoreline USGS maps.
BTW be sure to make sure north and mag north are indicated on the
section you copy.

When the acetetes get wet surface tension keeps them stuck to the deck
of my boat under the bungie and they don't blow around.
