Thanks I have a question what is the size of a Standard boaters Navigation chart map?

[@HawaiiGoesFishing]

They're pretty big. A marine navigational chart for coastal waters can be about 3 feet long and 3 feet high. It's really intended to be used on a desk or map table in a wheelhouse. They could be treated to be weather resistant but it wouldn't take long before they'd fall apart.
Fortunately GPS units have taken the place of charts for smaller vessels.

Nice video update

[@armorvestrus4119]

I wish all compasses were made that way it would be so much easier to read them.
