<h2>North Sea Zone Sea Card Packs</h2>
<p>The nv-charts are characterized by fine contours and easy to distinguish colour graduations of the depth lines: turquoise for coral reefs, red for the 2-metre line and blue for the 5-metre zones. Presented in a practical and user-friendly format (A3 closed and A2 open), a thick plastic envelope protects the charts, making them easy to store. The importance of a good graphic representation of the topography when navigating the North Sea is essential.<br /><br />Well-marked rivers, towns and street maps all contribute to a clear overview of the islands' waterfront facilities. Red numbered waypoints with coordinates based on WGS 84 allow mariners to navigate with their GPS instruments. Heights and depths are shown in the internationally recognized metre format. Large-scale approaches and land contour markings simplify entry into anchorages.</p>
