Nube Charts

I'm working on planning a sailing trip and started with the book "World Cruising Routs
" by Jimmy Cornell. My question is when a chart is listed as US:400, where do get that chart and can you get the chart is digital format?

Almost all of the US government provided charts of US waters, coastal and inland, are available on the internet for free. However, when actually going out cruising, I highly recommend you have all of the PAPER CHARTS that you will need for your journey in addition to any electronic format charts.

If you do a search for ENC or BSB charts, you'll find download sites.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
