    I know some of our charts are a little off. The computer charts have us driving in the middle of an island sometimes, when we are clearly still in the water. The chart for Bimini is particularly egregious. When we take the lat:long of the entrance range on the west either from print materials or in person, on the paper chart the range appears to be in the water on the east side of the island.

    We have a Garmin 45 hooked to the computer which has exactly the same charts with the same error. How can I fix this?
