You can now make your own swim charts using our Admiralty Chart Kit
For all swimmers who are interested in having an official Admiratly chart with their swim track - we have a perfect solution: our new DIY Chart Kit. It will enable you to accurately plot your swim track on the Admiralty Chart 1892 (Dover Strait - Western Part) which is available for delivery from many online shops.
To use, first buy an Admiralty chart: it costs aroung £25 / $45 and takes few days to deliver by post. Next, download our Chart Kit PDF from your public swim page: the link to it is on all CS&PF office correspondence to solo swimmers / relay captains. You can see a sample Chart Kit PDF here.
Once you have both, print two copies of the Chart Kit PDF; cut the grids from one copy and use to plot your track. Use the other copy to identify track points / times. The Chart Kit also includes Sandettie weather and Sun / Moon / Dover tides data collected during the swim hours.
Optional suggestions:
- Use the Sandettie data table and "Tides, Sun & Moon" table to mark other data on the chart.
- Get your swim team, crew, friends and family sign the chart for you.
- If you are framing the chart, include your CS&PF swim certificate.
