Good charts, maybe not as detailed as the East Coast charts.

The charts are good. I have not had a lot of chance to use them, but the Hawaii charts do not seem to be as detailed as the East Coast charts. Maybe that's beause there is less to hit!

Great product with excellent customer service.

I ordered the Bahamas Courtesy Flag believing it was in stock. Had a call from customer service the next day stating it was not in stock, on back order and asking if I would like a refund or to change my order. I did neither as I was in no hurry for the item. Item arrived when advised and am extremely pleased with the product and quality. Even more pleased that the merchant took the time to call and explain the situation. I will definitely purchase from American Nautical Services again.
