Are there somewhere maps available that can be used for cases like this?

Ah yes, that's definitely the kind of thing I'm looking for.
Although for Cook the map I want is not there - I need one of the whole Pacific, or a world map with the split in the Atlantic or in the Indian Ocean/Asia.
Also, a version without borders would be nice for historical maps, and a version with less or no text as a base map in general. But I have bookmarked this one, thanks!

A little bit of photo-shopping of this might do... http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/maps/zn-map.gif

The best maps I've found are at http://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/world.htm
"All maps and graphics created by Graphic Maps, a d/b/a of the Woolwine-Moen Group, unless otherwise noted or linked, and use of same for any application whatsoever (with the exception of outline maps) requires written permission."
From this, I'd say that the outline maps are acceptable, but they don't do oceans.
I could imagine something like this http://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/europe/euoutl.htm being useful, though.

I have an old German atlas (1907). I can scan it if needed. I have put some examples here: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Yann/Atlas
And an announce in the German WP without answer so far. If you need a map, just ask. Yann
