HELP - Need Charts Now!! - cpss - November 2, 2006
Hey,
I just got GPSNavX and MacGPS pro. I am cruising from Olympia Washington to Victoria British Columbia very soon. Will Purchase Appropriate charts but require them immediately. I'm not sure how to get them here soon enough; I'm Canadian with a Canadian address. Any one know how I can make it happen?

You can also buy them at a discount from Bellingham Chart Printers:

They're the Maptech versions but still the NDI charts. For example, the superpack (all BC charts) that NDI sells for $899cd, and Maptech sells for $749usd, they have for $669usd. Not cheap but not many options with Canadian charts.
Bellingham Chart Printers has always provided very fast service for me.
