Hello, One digital product that I am aware of is the "General Bathymetric
Chart of the Oceans," GEBCO Digital Atlas 1997 version.  It is available
from the British Oceanographic Data Centre, Proudman Oceanographic
Laboratory, Bidston Observatory, Birkenhead, Merseyside L43 7RA, UK  (Fax:
+44 151 652 3950; email: <a href="/scripts/wa-UGA.exe?LOGON=A3%3D9801%26L%3DMAPS-L%26E%3D7BIT%26P%3D214185%26B%3D--%26T%3Dtext%252FplainTEXT%252FPLAIN%3B%2520charset%3DUS-ASCII%26pending%3D" target="_parent" >[log in to unmask]</a>).  Perhaps they have something
else that offers the shallow water detail that you are looking for, as this
is a cooperative publication of various governmental and international
hydrographic organizations.
