A little history

NV Charts is Germany's largest publisher of nautical charts. For more than 40 years, the NV Charts name has been synonymous with competence and continuity in the publication of nautical charts and guides, through a team of hydrographers, cartographers and nautical geographers who combine their know-how. Their nautical charts are tailored to the specific interests of sailing or motor boaters. Not only boaters who have been sailing between the Baltic Sea and the Caribbean for decades trust NV charts, but also pilots of the Kiel Canal (which connects the Baltic Sea to the North Sea) sail with special maps from NV editions, as well as the US Coast Guard between Miami and Grenada.

The A3 format booklets include several maps at different scales of the area covered.
France is divided into 11 zones, i.e. 11 booklets of 30 maps. Some areas have been remeasured and updated using aerial photographs.
