SAILING DIRECTIONS NOW A FREE DOWNLOAD FROM CANADIAN HYDROGRAPHIC SERVICE
Apr 22, 2019
The Sailing Directions booklets are an indispensable companion to nautical charts. They are a great tool for planning and assisting in navigation because they provide information that cannot be shown on a chart.
All hard copy Print on Demand (POD) Sailing Directions booklets are being printed with current Notices to Mariners updates applied. These POD booklets are available for purchase from authorized chart dealers located across Canada and around the world.
Free downloadable Sailing Directions now available
Important note:
It is the mariners’ responsibility to maintain their digital Sailing Directions file by ensuring that the latest version is always downloaded. If the mariner chooses to print their own Sailing Directions booklet, it is imperative that the current Notices to Mariners updates are applied. Please check this page by the 15th of the month to verify the last update date for the booklet that has been downloaded, and download a new copy as required. Do not leave port without it!
