The UK3 takes you into the strait between Southampton and the Isle of Wight. The Solent is known as one of the best sailing areas in England, despite extreme currents due to tidal waters. In the summer it is relatively lively there, especially since Southampton has a large port and various cruise ships are on the way. The major regatta "Fastnet Race" starts every two years from Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, and is becoming increasingly popular. The Isle of Wight is characterized by its chalk hills that stretch across the island. Especially "The Needles", three rock islands made of chalk on the western tip of the island, are worth a detour.Our charts are based on official data from the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) and contain additional harbour plans and details for approaches and passages in the waters. Thanks to the clear structure, the skipper can quickly find tide data, approaches, harbours and anchorages and is informed of important navigational details that also appear in the NV Charts app. The chart series impresses with its optimal scales and balanced sheet cuts.This map set contains:3 oversailers8 precinct charts25 detailed chartsCode for the appDigital charts & navigation programNavigation instructions in EnglishTide tablesPort charts paper & DigitalMeets legal requirements for up-to-date paper charts on boardNV Atlas chart format NV Charts nautical charts are available in an outstandingly practical, handy atlas booklet format and thus offer many advantages over formats from other manufacturers.
