By the way, with this updated charts realease, Land Information New Zealand has also published its latest Nautical Almanac.

Covering 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2017 the New Zealand Nautical Almanac is an authoritative source of information for safe navigation in New Zealand waters.

It contains astronomical information, tide predictions for ports, and information about navigation lights, as well as LINZ’s Annual Notices to Mariners.

"This is critical information for safety at sea, and compulsory for certain vessels," says LINZ National Hydrographer Adam Greenland. "But we’d encourage all mariners to consider carrying a copy."

"These updates use the latest information gathered by surveying the sea floor, so you should make sure you update your chart portfolio if you’re in these areas."

Both the Almanac and the latest paper chart updates are available from chart retailers.

They can also be downloaded in several electronic formats from the LINZ website.

Information in the Nautical Almanac is updated through LINZ’s fortnightly Notice to Mariners service.
