Paper Charts Versus Electronic Charts

When we left in 1998, we were paper chart purists.  We bought a chart for every conceivable destination and passage along the first half of our route (from Florida to Australia).  We carried the Maptech electronic charts only as back-up and for planning purposes.  When someone told us they relied primarily on electronic charts, we privately questioned their judgment.  No — it was stronger than that.  We questioned their seamanship.

All that changed along the way.

In Australia in 2001, we bought a combination radar-chartplotter that used the C-Map NT+ electronic chart cards. They were so accurate and so convenient and so bullet-proof that they changed our entire approach to navigation.  For the remainder of the trip we bought only small-scale (large area) paper charts as emergency back-ups and relied on the electronic C-Map cards as our primary charts. 

Because the cards work on both the chartplotter and the computer, we had built-in redundancy.  The only chart-related disaster that could have happened would have been (1) dropping the card overboard! (2) a complete power failure and eventual draining of the laptop battery; or (3) the laptop and chartplotter both failing on passage.  In any of those events, we had the back-up large-area paper charts.  If we were down to one failsafe (if, for example the power failed and we were on laptop batteries, or if the chartplotter failed and we were down to the laptop alone — actually, we also carried a spare laptop!), we also would have printed out detail charts from the C-Map card to supplement the paper charts for landfall.

Under the Club C-Map program, we purchased a card for the waters we were currently sailing (each card covers a huge area), plus a card for the very next area.  Then when we would depart an area, we could trade the old card in for a new one for the area beyond, leap-frog fashion.  We kept two or three aboard, so we wouldn’t get caught out if there were no reliable mailing facilities nearby for the exchange.  There is a fee for the trades, but it is still a major savings on purchasing every card, and an astronomical savings over purchasing every paper chart for an area.

Below is a list of electronic and paper charts aboard Heartsong III during the circumnavigation.
