Chart Clarificaion
I'm just looking at my TWO Winni navigation charts which I keep on my desk next to my computer....just in case. I understand that these charts are NOT to be used for navigation, but rather "Orientation".
Anywho: My Bizer chart is obviously a Bizer. The other chart I have is an old "Lakes Region Cartographic", distributed by "Lakes Region Assosiation" in Center Harbor, 1997-1998. This chart is green. Question: Is THIS green chart the same as the Duncan (Green) chart..except with a new name..? |

I think you are right.

From Duncan Press Our Advisors page: "Mildred Beach for decades was the administrator of the Lakes Region Association and a lifelong friend of Dunc's. During his lifetime, Dunc's charts were distributed exclusively by Mildred, working for the Lakes Region Association. Mildred has advised Sally on her recollections of Dunc's guiding principles, as well as opening many doors to other sources around the region." Hope this helps satisfy your curiosity.

Thanks Skipper. That satisfies my curiosity. I like certain aspects of BOTH charts so I carry both....even though the green one is way out of date.

Our "green" chart is a little older, 1986-1987.
