[CA] [CA11] difference between NOAA charts

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome back to the Raymarine Forum Bob,

The LightHouse US NOAA Raster regional Charts differ from the LightHouse US NOAA Raster East Charts only in the total geographical area of coverage and the quantity of memory required to store these charts. Similarly, LightHouse US NOAA Vector regional Charts differ from the LightHouse US NOAA Vector East Charts only in the total geographical area of coverage and the quantity of memory required to store these charts. As the LightHouse US NOAA Raster East Charts and LightHouse US NOAA Raster regional Charts are each offered for the same price (at the time of this response), most of those purchasing the LightHouse US NOAA Raster Charts will purchase a microSD memory card which is sufficiently large enough (32GB recommended) to contain both the LightHouse US NOAA Raster Charts East or West Raster Charts and the LightHouse US NOAA Vector East or West Vector Charts. Doing so would then potentially eliminate the need to switch chart cards into and out of the system.
