The State of Play of NOAA's Charting Tools and ProcessesLecture by Steve
Runals- 0930, 24 February 2024

This week's PMU lecture should be of interest to all sailors of every
description. As everyone should know, NOAA no longer produces hard copy
charts so now you must either depend on third party vendors for your charts
or buy chart books. But, there is a better way! Captain Steve Runals is
going to show us how to do it! Steve requires little introduction to the
PMU lectern; he has provided our students a number of lectures in the past.
He holds a USCG Near Coastal Captain's License and is an ASA Certified
Sailing Instructor through ASA 106. He has been racing and cruising for
over 40 years in boats of all sizes up to 45 feet and has over 39.000
offshore miles with experience in the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean,
Caribbean, and Gulf of Mexico including deliveries from Panama to Texas, St
Vincent to Annapolis, Norfolk to Caribbean and a Trans-Atlantic voyage from
Long Island to Lagos Portugal. His lecture is going to cover the processes
that NOAA has established to enable users to create and download and save a
tailored chart, and print or forward it to a third-party vendor for
printing. This is going to be an excellent lecture, As always, if you can't
be there in person, please log in to the Zoom meeting and participate from
the comfort of home- or whatever far flung location you are at. PMU
Lectures are free for everyone and the Dean appreciates your attendance,
whether an OPCYC member or not. The link to the Zoom meeting (for future
reference, it should be the same link for the remainder of the 2024 PMU
semester) is:
