The Story Behind the Print
This 1969 nautical chart of Monterey Bay was issued by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey for the curving bay between Santa Cruz and Monterey, California. Warm land tones and pale water give the sheet the calm, practical look of a working mariner's chart.
Santa Cruz sits at the top of the bay and Monterey at the bottom, with Moss Landing midway along the shore and the deep Monterey Canyon reaching in from the open sea. Inset plans show the Santa Cruz small craft harbor, Moss Landing Harbor and Monterey Harbor, and compass roses sit over the bay.
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.
