USCG Local Notice to MarinersThe Local Notice to Mariners is a USCG publication which is issued by each CG district as shown in the map below. This publication lists changes in aides to navigation, chart changes, and other information that may be of interest to mariners.
In order to keep your charts current, you should subscribe to the local notice or check the online version frequently to see what is going on in your area.
Once you follow the link to the Local Notice to Mariners you will be presented with the map below. Let's say you are delivering a boat to a location in Florida - you will click on the District 7 section of the map. (This only works at the site, not in this demonstration.)
Once you have selected District 7, you will be presented with a page of information, similar to the sample below, from which you can select the publication date you wish to view. You can also search the entire database for a particular word set such as "St. Lucie Inlet" in order to find all instances of information containing this phrase. (The search engine was not working when I tried it, but I did notify the USCG that they needed to rebuild their indexes.)
