New 8th edition features colored maps and a revised layout for improved readability! 

Previously updated in 2011 with the extensive knowledge of Captain Holly Scott from her many adventures in Polynesia. Additionally, we have received and incorporated many updates on anchorages and marina facilities from cruisers who are out there right now in the following areas:

  • Iles Marquises
  • Archipel des Tuamotu (the Tuamotu)
  • Pitcairn Island
  • Isla de Pascua (Easter lsland)
  • Iles de la Societe (Society Islands--Windward Islands of Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea and Bora-Bora)
  • Cook Islands
  • Niue

In addition to color photographs by Charles and Margo Wood and Karin Steinkamp, the 7th Edition includes several new photographs by Captain Holly and Jo.

The introduction covers topics such as routes and passage times, weather, cyclones, currents, entry procedures and regulations for the different areas.

"After cruising the Tuamotu and Society Islands for two seasons we are convinced that there is no better and up-to-date guide and the authors have gone far to revise the charts and add new information as often as practicable." K. Michael Marquardt, Master Mariner

Our waterproof charts are printed on a

printing technology. The waterproof
material accepts pencil markings well and
also erases well. The paper and printing process has been certified by NOAA and deemed to be suitable to withstand the

DECORATIVE ANTIQUED CHARTS

This is a unique line of decorative charts prepared by Paradise Cay Publications.

  • This is an art piece prepared with the look of a well-used chart with the patina of antique parchment.
  • Printed on our high-quality heavy paper.
  • We have added an additional border to allow for framing.
  • Shipped rolled, never folded.

The short side of the chart is always printed at 36" and the long side will vary depending on the chart - please do not order framing prior to receiving the chart. These will memorialize your favorite coastal area in vintage style and we have added to the standard border of the typical NOAA chart to allow for a more professional, frame-ready presentation.
