I've done this for my sailing area using two-sided printing and stapled them into a book form. They're very nice to have around for planning and reference:

NOAA BookletCharts for Great Lakes

Note that 14961 covers all of Lake Superior, and there are numerous others giving more detail on sections of the lake.
I always make printout booklets as well and have a little inkjet aboard just for this purpose. One big advantage of doing this is that you can make a 200% blow-up if needed. I make all my notes on them as well to later be transferred to log. Very handy.
