Yes, you do need the charts for the Balduran's Island quest. Mendas, the guy with the accent in the house next to the dock at Ulgoth's Beard is the one who gives you the quest, the first part of which is to obtain the sea charts. (Always read your log, btw, whenever you receive a quest, as you will often find more specific information about the quest there.) Anyway, you are to go to the city of Baldur's Gate to the Counting House in the NE sector of the city. There are two separate subsections to this map, as it is divided by the old town wall, and I forget which map you approach it from to get in. But just keep trying from different spots from the two adjoining maps.
