We remove sections to improve the overall esthetic quality of the image. Cropping and reprinting charts make them unsuitable for navigation. However, the charts in this collection are ideal for home and business decor. Framed nautical charts make great conservation pieces. Nautical charts printed on other products in our collection make excellent additions to the decor in living areas, bedroom areas, and bathrooms.
