WARNING:No national hydrographic office has verified the information in this product or quality assured it, and none accept liability for

the accuracy of reproduction or any modifications made thereafter. No national hydrographic office makes any warranties or representations,

express or implied, with respect to this product. No national hydrographic office warrants that the product satisfies national or international

regulations regarding the use of the appropriate products for navigation or that it contains the latest hydrographic information available.

WARNING:All charts are digitized directly from existing government and other official charts and should not be used solely for navigation.

Digital charts are intended to be used as an aid to traditional navigational charts, not as a replacement. Only official government charts and

notices to mariners contain all information needed for the safety of navigation, and as always, the captain is responsible for their prudent

use. A prudent navigator never relies on any single source of navigational information. Garmin strives to provide its customers with the most

economical, accurate and up-to-date electronic maps available. However, features are continually changing, so the data may not reflect the latest

modifications and/or additions in your area. Garmin makes no warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of the map data.

WARNING:Garmin BlueChart data and bottom information are for navigation reference only, as bottom conditions are continually changing.

This product is for general reference.

WARNING:Some of the information in this product may have been produced, in part or whole, from withdrawn national hydrographic office

products. New charts and/or NTM corrections will render this product obsolete and inaccurate.

liability for the accuracy of copying or for any modifications that may have been made to the information which it has supplied. Use of and

entry to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park is controlled by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act 1975 (Cth) (“the Act”). Penalties apply

for use of or entry to a zone for a purpose other than for a purpose permitted under the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Zoning Plan 2003 (“the

Zoning Plan”) prepared by the Authority pursuant to section 32 of the Act. This product does not contain all information concerning permitted

use or entry under the Zoning Plan. For purposes of use of or entry to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, this product should only be used in

conjunction with the Zoning Plan and the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Regulations 1983 (Cth). For purposes of navigation, users should

waters under Canadian jurisdiction which requires the master and owner of every ship to: have on board, in respect of each area in which the
