I confess that I have an echo sounder. But I calibrated it with a galvanised rowlock and a bit of string, so I hope I retain some of my luddite credentials.

Anyone fancy a full set of paper admiralty charts for the UK, Scandinavia, Baltic, Spain, Portugal, North Africa and across to Brazil? France is missing, but it's otherwise all there. I bought them in a fit of enthusiasm but they take up a lot of room and The Boss is beginning to make meaningful noises.
