My apologies for not remembering the original poster for the site below.

I ordered a few of the free charts and thought I would pass along what I
learned. The charts (mostly of Florida, but a couple that cover the Potomac
and Chesapeake Bay) are printed on heavy newsprint (even folded like a
Sunday ad paper). A little hard to read the finer detail, and appear to be
reprints of NOAA charts. The blank areas of the newsprint are covered with
local ads. Scale ranged from 1:20,000 (Washington area of the Potomac) to
1:80,000 (lower Potomac). Worth the 3 bucks I paid for shipping I guess, but
not much more.
