Although i am not the developer, I do know this is possible using 
FWTools (http://fwtools.maptools.org/).  Open the 'FWTools Shell' window 
and execute an ogr2ogr command 
(http://gdal.maptools.org/ogr/ogr2ogr.html) such as the following:

   $ ogr2ogr -f "CSV" test-dir mys57file.000

This will convert your s-57 data into several csv files.  Others may 
have more details for you on this, but this might get you started. 
There might be driver specific options that you can set also (s-57 
export http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_s57.html), but i haven't tried that 
for this format.

i hope this helps a little.
