Sad news ... I read last week that the UKHO will be phasing out all paper charts and be fully digital by the end of 2026. Hopefully Imray will continue to produce Folios suitable for our use in European waters.

Very sad news. Although I use the electronic things I always have the paper chart out because it gives me an overview of where I am.

Paper charts also work when the batteries are flat and unlike electronic boxes are reasonably robust when wet.

The good news is that Imray will not only continue to publish but will extend their range.
