The Story Behind the Print
This 1968 nautical chart of Key West Harbor and Approaches, Florida, is U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey chart 584, drawn on a Mercator projection at 1:30,000 with soundings in feet at mean low water. Khaki-tan land, with the street grid of Key West, sits beside pale blue-grey shoals and open white water, crossed by a soft grey band for the Southwest Channel, with grey compass roses.
Lettered on the sheet are Key West, Stock Island, Fleming Key, Sigsbee Park, Raccoon Key and Boca Chica Key, with the Barracouta Keys and Woman Key to the west and Sand Key and Rock Key to the south. Waters include Man of War Harbor, Garrison Bight, Northwest Channel, Southwest Channel, Hawk Channel, Main Ship Channel and the Straits of Florida, with Eastern Dry Rocks and Western Sambo marking the reefs.
Printed on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper using fade-resistant giclée printing with archival inks, ensuring your vintage nautical chart will maintain its maritime heritage for generations.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.
