Scott, you wrote: "As I understand it, if the ship/submarine is authorized to use DNC for primary navigation purposes, then all publications provided by NGA [including HO229] can also be carried in "electronic" pdf format with the exception of the Nautical Almanac [I know it comes from USNO] which still has to be carried in paper form. If the ship is NOT authorized for DNC usage then there is a paper requirement for ALL charts and publications." Ok, I see what you're saying, I think. Authorization for DNC implies a whole bunch of other changes including leaving other paper documents behind.
