❖ CHART OF ALL CHARTS ❖


Click image to enlarge.
How fortunate we are for the art on
the most important marine chart of all.
Drawn by great-grandfather, Santa helper,
maritime historian, former 15-year
co-editor, and board member
of the highly esteemed journal,
The Sea Chest
(published by Puget Sound Maritime.)
Ronald R. Burke drew amazing charts for
the journal as well as for
several very appreciative book authors.
He gets oceans of thanks all the year through
from thousands of chart-loving readers
for volunteering his talent and goodwill.
