Re: Stupid question of the day.
Many people download the pirated CM-93
charts
that are available free from various sources on line. Desolation Sound is covered.
OpenCPN
has
advice
in the help files on where to find charts.

Re: Stupid question of the day.
We went to Cape Breton Island last summer and are planning on the Bay of Fundy this year and the CHS charts
work
fine for us on OpenCPN. We use raster charts, so I can't speak to the vector versions, but I would guess they would be all right too.
