    Doug Stone, John Tully et al Maps - The Good, the Bad & the Alternatives

    I have a Signal Dunolly map and a downloaded copy of that old geo map too (which i'd love to print, frame and stick on my wall one day! 😍) so am somewhat familiar with both.

    Doug Stone gold atlas on Vic, pls

    +1 for the Signal maps mate. They have far more detail than Tullys, are topographic, include puddlers, more reefs, etc. I'm on em full time these days.
