Wonder if anyone can advise, I recently bought a laminated chart for Ocean Reef for $40, and it blew off the boat whilst towing, not keen to fork out another $40, are they avaible to download free, I need one to cover Hillarys to Rottness area, probably the Trigg one will also do, I did a search here and on Google but to no avail.

Thanks

Hello - no free ones AFAIK. The maps are produced by the DPI and its a user pays system. Digital version of some WA hydro charts here for ~ $99

Digital nautical charts

Though keep in mind that they state they are not for navigation purposes!

Cheers

I sent one final shout after him to stick to the track, to which he replied “All right,” That was the last ever seen of Gibson - E Giles 23 April 1874

HI PUTTPUTT

For reasonable priced second hand charts you could try quokka or local rag. Many people who have quit boats over the years have maps that they no longer want. Your local rag will probably have your request for free. Even second hand book shops will sometimes have maps. I picked up my landcruiser manuals by toyota from a second hand book shop - sort of different but you never know.
