Long time lurker, but first time poster....I'll skip the intro though and go to your answer:
Online:
Chart 12263
Interactive catalog (online view/download or print) : Paper and Raster Nautical Chart Catalog
Kind of a pain to get through....but I think you can print them as well. If you're IPhone or ITouch equipped there's an excellent app called Navionics. About $15 for the eastern seaboard charts and the GPS connects!
See ya!

I know, I am going to get broke eventually
The Bluechart SD chip for my Zumo 550 has been discontinued and the new version doesn't work with the Zumo.

Thanks, I found that earlier, I figured there was a place I could swing by and buy one locally.
Oh and welcome.

Thanks! And what Baja said, "West Marine." They have a section in the front of the store with charts. I don't think they were too expensive....less then thirty bucks if I remember correctly.

Thanks, I will check. I should get a GPS/plotter but I spent big bucks on my Zumo 550 because it would work on the bike, truck or even marine maps. Now they replaced the Bluechart maps with Bluechart 2g and it doesn't work on mine.
Forking out another $400 is not sitting too well right now.

What's that they say about a hole in the water into which you throw money?
Yea, if it was for the boat it would still suck. What chaps my butt is I paid over $800 for the GPS I have and now it doesn't fit the bill

Start saving your pennies, but this is a GOOD unit.

I can relate to your angst with all the GPS options, compatibility issues, etc. I'd like to get a unit for my boat but am holding out so far till I can sort it all out. Here's a link for some downloadable NOAA charts similar to what Junio mentioned earlier:

Let us know what you come up with. Good luck.

GPS charts aren't the most up to date charts you can or should haveit's not up to date unless you go online and update frequently.. MOST have not been updated, and are current as of the day they were bought, which could be YEARS ago.
MY suggestion would be go to West Marine, ask for Caitlin, she'll find you the charts, and while you are there she'll give you a GREAT deal on a TowBoatUS membership (something NO boater should be without ESPECIALLY if they are depending on GPS for their chart info!)
