Description
First published in the 1950s Imray's Map of the river above Rochester has always been popular with boaters. There is no other large scale map of the non-tidal section of the Medway above Allington Lock. For the last twenty years the map had been published as part of a guide with a commentary by Derek Bowskill and now this brand new edition reverts to its early successful strip map format. The content has been revised and notes and photographs added by Dave Wise whose experience of navigating the river is as a canoeist. This new edition is printed in colour and packaged in an easy-to-use folded format.

Person
Imray Laurie Norie & Wilson Ltd was formed in 1904 when three private chart publishing firms amalgamated. Each of these London companies had a long history going back to the mid-18th century. James Imray and Son published an extensive list of charts and pilot books. RH Laurie and Sons was associated with charts published for the East India Company. Norie and Wilson, founded by JW Norie, whose Nautical Tables are still supplied to navigators across the world, produced charts and books on navigation and sold nautical instruments.Until 1939 we were based in the City of London, where long serving cartographers produced charts from copper plate engravings which were supplied to mariners throughout the World. For over a century Blueback Charts were the first choice of many shipping companies. Now based in St Ives in Cambridgeshire, Imray charts are produced digitally for printed and electronic editions by our drawing office team. Our catalogue of yachting charts is regarded by the sailing community as the most comprehensive available. Our paper charts are complemented by a growing list of electronic publications and high quality pilot books by leading authors.
