For those of you who are either on or planning extended voyaging, do you get paper and electronic
charts all in one go before departure or acquire them along your
route?
I have purchased paper and digital
charts for the
Caribbean, but hope to sail West -- though I'm not certain that I will and hence would rather not invest heavily in charts I may never use.
Can I acquire paper charts in places such as
Panama? How about electronic charts (Garmin G2, specifically). Is it going to be a pain expense and customs-wise to get those on the go?
Thanks.
