This chart is for historical use only and should not be used as a present-day chart. Beacons, Lighthouses, and Fog Horns are marked as a red dot on this chart. This chart is in good, used, condition, printed on stout paper.. Lots of HISTORICAL DETAIL on this chart There are two Rose Compasses shown on this chart. This chart is flat, has been folded once, at source, so as to fit into a standard Folio folder, and will be posted rolled in a postal tube, hence slightly higher postal costs.
This chart is used in comparison with the 'Waghenaer's map' of 1591 and the map from 'Zeeboek' of 1560
