DESCRIPTION

Triangulation chart of the coast of Florida showing great details for Key Biscayne Bay, along with Barnes Sound, and Florida Bay. Includes inset maps of the Dry Tortugas, Key West, Bahia Honda, and Coffin's Patches. Includes many islands, keys, and other features in the surrounding areas, as well as information on lighthouses, buoys, currents, and tides.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them. Please be aware.
