It's not that easy. In 2004, Bizer produced a smaller (9"x18", printed both sides) version of its map with a lot less detail. Very few retailers stock it because they don't want to confuse the customers. Retailers and customers simply want to buy a map. They don't have the time to do a cost-benefit analysis at the checkout counter. Also, the additional expense is sizable.

I will not know FOR SURE until I look at the proof before actually printing the map. If I make any changes after the proof has been printed, I have to go back to square one and expend another $1150 for the plates and another proof. The best I can do is print on my ink-jet printer and hope that the final proof is acceptable.
Other: I have verified that the buoy on the north side of Sandy Island is still missing. It will be part of my letter to the Marine Patrol over the winter.
