... thinking of sailing from Abaco to Cape Cod in June, which we have not ever done. I'd like to think we can do it in one shot, or possibly two hops, say Abaco to Norfolk, Norfolk to the Cape. I will probably have C-Map electronic charts for each section on my Raymarine Plotters, in case we need to pull in. My Plotters are older, retired, they take the NT+ cards, so (unfortunately) I will need to buy 3 chart cards at $200 a piece, argghh. I probably won't use the computer with downloadable charts and NAV software, for a few reasons.

Is there ONE set of paper charts out there in one Chartbook I can get ? And ONE Guidebook suggestion ? I won't need anything for FLA. This won't be a sightseeing trip. Perhaps in the Fall on the way back, but not this time. Looking at the MapTech products, looks like I will need to buy at least 2 Chartbooks, CK6 (FLA to Norfolk) and CK 3 (Cape May to Nantucket), and possibly skip the Chesapeake.

I do have Dodge's Inlet Chartbook: Southeastern US - Chesapeake to Miami.

thanks, cheers, John
