The series begins with mapsheet #201 Brooks Peninsula and extends in order down the outer Vancouver Island coast and up the southern BC coast then finally north through the Inside Passage. You can view the currently available list of mapsheets \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wildcoast.ca\/blogs\/news\/tagged\/mapsheet-index\" title=\"Wild Coast map index\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e. The maps are designed for paddlers and boaters, right down to the size — a handy 24x18\", slightly smaller than a traditional street map and so easy to manage when on the water. Use it as a \"deck topper\" for easy visualization as you travel on the water, use it around the campfire or at your anchorage at night to plan your next day's route, and at home for research when your journey is still in the dream stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping information:\u003cspan\u003e Please read the information in the link before ordering, as doing so will help determine if you will receive your order in time for your trip. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSee shipping alerts and shipping policy details \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wildcoast.ca\/pages\/shipping-policy-and-notifications\" title=\"Shipping policy and alerts\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wild Coast Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53020080505148,"sku":"244","price":18.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/9326\/4056\/files\/IMG_0400.jpg?v=1777484223","url":"https:\/\/axeman.ca\/products\/244-north-vancouver-island-kayaking-and-boating-map","provider":"Axeman.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
