Ah, ok. That chart is very clean yes. So could be a work-around for the issue.

Do you use a keyboard shortcut to switch charts or is it possible to configure Expedition do automatically switch?
Seems like a hazzle to manually switch in the menu each time wheen zooming in/out. We do a lot of costal and near shore races so would want the switching to be as easy as possible.

Update: Also found that if you in the Advanced C-map settings change "Depth shading" to "Safe" it seems to remove most (or all) of the blue marked deep areas in the C-map chart.  With that found I think I will take the plunge now and buy the C-map 4D charts.

Hi! New Expedition user looking to buy charts to use in Baltic and found this thread. I have assumed that 4D-charts is the way to go but reading the above issue with zoom-levels makes me want to check before buying..

I have so far with the free C-map world chart the same second issue that us7070 mention above. That when you zoom out to get an overview (of weather, routing, etc) a lot of the deep water is shown in blue. 
Is there a way within Expedition to configure this so that all deep areas show as white at all zoom levels with C-Map 4D charts? Or is this hard-coded into the C-Map 4D charts? 

Update: Did find in the advanced C-map settings that you can change the "Depth shading" to "Safe" and it removed most (maybe all) of the blue marking on the deep areas of the the chart.
