Has anyone found a good way to print the NOAA online charts? It seems that you 
should be able to make good chart kits on your own. I've been meaning to 
inquire at Kinko and other print on demand places.

Fred,  the old saying “you get what you pay for” probably applies even more so 
to charts such as these.  Thanks for letting me know.

Lloyd — thanks for the nice words; and +1 on Dennis’ suggestion.  I’ve 
purchased and used the Chartkit Region 9 for the Bahamas, and they’re a little 
pricey but really nice to use.

Lloyd,

I have the MapTech Chartkit for my region and really, really like it.  They 
aren't cheap but having all the large and smaller scale charts in one easy to 
use package is great.  The different scale charts are very handy for vessels 
making coastal passages and then moving to ICW or inland waters.  You can look 
at the big picture on a small scale chart then switch to a large scale chart 
when you enter a port or harbor.

Even though I've made the transit dozens of times, I keep the chartkit on the 
dining table for quick reference.

After a looong hiatus, Maptech just came out with the 4th edition of the Region 
16 New    Orleans to Panama City chartkit.  I didn't waste any time buying a 
copy.  My old spare 3rd editions are still valuable.  I've sold one already and 
have one on eBay.  I have yet another.

You may consider grabbing used, older editions for the regions you need from 
eBay.  There will be differences between editions.  I've noticed some in my 
area.  For instance, the Marianne Channel near Cat Island in Mississippi Sound 
has been renumbered.  Some shoals may have moved slightly but not much.

Hello Listers.  Thanks to so many of you for your help over the last few years 
and especially Fred Street for his excellant guidance on my new electronics and 
more. I am close to departing the Texas coast for the Florida Keys and eastward 
onto the Bahamas and the Caribbean.
 
I have downloaded and printed NOAA charts from Texas to Florida but am looking 
to add paper chart books eastward and would appreciate any recommendations in 
that regard.
 
Sincerely,
