    Default Australian Marine Charts for OziExplorer CE

    Having spent way too long looking for decent charts for Western Port Bay and Port Phillip Bay I decided it was time to make my own. But where to start?

    GARMIN! Using Homeport with my 2008 maps I began the tedious task of taking screenshot after screenshot and stitching them together in MSPaint. With the map complete, calibrating it in OziExplorer was a piece of cake. I just used the decimal points in the depth markers as reference points for calibration! Then I used "Image to OZF" to convert the 65MB BMP into a puny 1.6MB OZFx3!

    So here it is, Western Port Bay with depth markers for OziExplorerCE!


    (Sorry to anyone who downloaded the corrupted "Marine.zip" Link now points to "WesternPortBay.zip")

    Port Phillip Bay following soon.

    I'm happy to do requests for fellow contributors, but requests from non-contributing serial leeches will be ignored!

    Hi mate.

    None of the links work any more. I know it's an old thread. If you still have it, I would really appreciate, if you can provide a working link.

    Thank you in advance
