Trusted by mariners and sailing enthusiasts for more than two centuries, Imray is announcing the gradual conclusion of its chart publishing operations, marking the end of an era. While this decision has not been taken lightly, it recognises growing trends in nautical digital navigation.

Meanwhile, Imray will continue focusing on supporting the maritime world through its comprehensive pilot book and cruising guide titles, together with the popular 'Explore with Imray' digital product. These resources will continue to offer sailors and adventurers a guiding hand and vital, verified information for coastal and offshore navigation.

Imray Notices to Mariners will continue to print and support charts through the 2025 season. After that point, Imray will no longer publish new editions.

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven't put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full-time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.
