Nautical Charts
| NOTE: The new 2007 version of Chart 1513 is now available. The last edition of this chart was 1996, so now is the time to update!! |
 The following are hydrographic charts produced by the Canadian Hydrographic Service. These charts contain depth readings as well as information on all the navigation markers along the waterways. ALL boaters should carry an appropriate set of charts with them on any boating outing. These are the only maps officially sanctioned for navigation.
The Rideau Waterway Charts are at a scale of 1;20,000 and have water depths marked in feet. Water depths are shown approximately every 500 to 1,500 feet (150-500 metres), sometimes closer in areas with rapid water depth changes. In addition, navigation markers are shown and the locks are shown in detail with 1:4,800 scale inserts.
