Christmas Gift for the Sailor who has everything

'3D Chart - you can choose any nautical chart in the world for your personal gift' .

Christmas is coming, and some gifts take time to prepare...Does the favourite sailor in you life have a special place - a bay, gulf, anchorage or port, the memory of which he or she will treasure forever?

Yes?

Then we just may have the most extravagantly suitable gift you ever could never have thought of...a three-dimensional chart.

While a picture can capture a memory, sometimes a 3D chart can capture the location of that memory and the way Latitude Kinsele creates the 3D chart will ensure it takes pride of place in your home. The charts are all hand-made with fine workmanship.

Chart making in progress - .. .

All you need to do is select a nautical chart, and they will create a relief 3D chart showing the various depths and coastline contours, beautifully framed. The chart that you supply is transformed to a timeless piece of art.

Latitude Kinsale is innovative, too, with surround lighting built into the frame!! A soft white light is cast evenly across the face of the chart highlighting the 3D, casting shadows and in a way that there is no reflection in the glass.

Extras:

You can even have coastal lights added to your chosen chart - lighthouses and navigation lights which flash to the correct sequence and colour.

To go further, the 3D chart can be imbedded in a table or other piece of fine furniture. This will put a personal stamp on the piece that may be treasured for generations after you.
