Laminated (soft-matte front / gloss back, edge-sealed) — Front side is low-glare and writeable with chart-correction/grease pencils; gloss back adds rigidity. Wipes clean with a soft cloth.
We use a soft-matte writeable face with a gloss reverse so you can annotate fixes, bearings, and ETAs directly on the chart, then clean down between passages.
