• Printed on demand in house

• Printed on 50# paper

Pub. 147, Sailing Directions (Enroute): Caribbean Sea, Volume I, is the first of the two U.S. government Enroute volumes covering the Caribbean. It is produced by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), formerly NIMA. As The American Practical Navigator (Bowditch) explains, Enroutes describe the features of coastlines, ports and harbors. Each volume divides the coast into numbered sectors, each opening with a Chart Information Graphic that keys the charts for that area, and includes conversions between feet, fathoms and meters.

Enroutes are updated more often than Planning Guides and are corrected between editions by the Notice to Mariners. This is a 218-page, 8.5 x 11 inch paperback. Paradise Cay prints this edition on demand in house on 50# paper, so each copy is the most current edition available.
