G'Day

Our local paddling group have been discussing charts and concluded that
street directory maps of coastlines and local tourist maps for recreational
fishermen are a very useful supplement. I've saved an old street directory
and am drawing in a compass rose to the appropriate pages, taking them out
of the book and laminating them. Details such as whether beaches are sandy
or rocky, presence of small creeks and bomboras, and use of familiar place
names are helpful and can be missing or hard to read on naval charts.

All the best, PeterO
