Source of these maps?
Has anyone seen maps like this before? I've been looking for maps of the Rideau system and I have only been able to find a detailed one of Newboro.

I have the Navionics map on my phone but I usually dont get reception on the lake. I've been googling and scouring for maps but haven't been able to find anything with similar detail.
Anyone know of the source or can suggest a similar map? (Specifically looking for Upper Rideau but I would be happy with more out of the whole system)
Cheers

In Ottawa I bought these maps from Ottawa to Kempville.They are marine navigation maps which I purchased at World of Maps.
Hope this helps.

You can download the maps onto your phone from the Navionics app, so the map is still useable when you don't have service.

Thanks Walker. I'll be sure to pick them up.
Brad, good point about the downloading but I like seeing the whole thing and its easier for planing. Plus I dont like to have my phone out when I'm on the boat for fear of it going in the drink.

The call could be way worse than that..
In all seriousness though, if you are concerned of dropping it over bored or getting it wet, Lifeproof makes a great waterproof case that also has a "Life Jacket" accessory that makes it float for that specific reason. I haven't bought one yet, but it is an alternative.
Having maps on the boat, no matter what type, is always beneficial though.

Or a heavy duty Ziplock bag with some air in it will float your phone.
Damn right I'm good in the sack...I can sleep for hours!

My phone got drenched in a downpour two years ago. May as well toss it overboard.
I don't spend enormous amounts of money for my phones, (I keep the cash for rods, reels and bass boats).
But I still need to purchase a Pelican case for my current non-smart Motorola RAZR V3i GSM Flip Phone.
I purchase maps of lakes that we fish on.
I also have a handheld GPS and a compass (as backup), just in case that the GPS unit fails.

Re: Source of these maps?
After getting caught in a down pour a few years ago, my brand new Galaxy Nexus got turned into a brick when my rain jacket pocket did not seal properly resulting in a puddle of water forming in the pocket.
Now my phone remains in a ziplock bag unless I really need to take a picture or make an emergency call.

Well that just sucks. My wife spilled coffee on mine in the boat the other day but because of the case, I was able to just dunk it in the water to rinse it off.

BAG OF RICE
is all you need to fix a drenched phone.... ive flooded 3 phones 2 of them at least 3 times each ..... my girlfriend flooded her galaxy s3 and black beary z10 brand new phones and all phones worked 100% after 2 days in the rice bag.... and i don't mean sprinkled with water, i mean submerged and taken out of pocket streaming... just take the battery out ASAP remove as much of water as possible ( shaking blowing, blow dryer, car dash fan,ect...) and stuff it in the bag for 2 days or more it should work ..... but definitely do not trie to turn on before 2 days....
i cant guaranty it ,but ive personally seen it work miracles....
