The lake charts can be found at just about any Marina. Better yet, as you still have time before boating season, you could order a Bizer Chart through this website (thus helping support the website). I believe it's a "pay per click" set up, so simply link to the Bizer site through this site (find the Bizer logo/advertisement).
I'm glad you took my advise -- a neighbor is a good way to go. You'll be amazed at how relatively easy it is if your watching not concentrating on driving. I give you an open invitation -- If you are on the Lake for Memorial Day week-end, I would be happy to take you for a spin as well (gives me an excuse to "ride") as we routinely pass your area it would not be an inconvience. Should you decide PM me.
A final thought -- if you can't get the pass/color scheme down in your head ........ many of us use a "catch phrase" to remember ...... also, many years ago we use to have a homemade sticker taped below the compass -- with simply N E in Black letters & SW in Red letters.
