My old laptop died and I've replaced it with a refurbished Panasonic Toughbook. Nice upgrade for cheap. Windows 7 with upgrade to 10 option
Next issue, what software to install. For the past 20 years I've used CAPN for route planning and then just connected my laptop into the onboard GPS for cruising. Now I've upgraded to Raymarine E units on the pedestal and in the nav station. Both are equipped with Navionics cards. I want to be able to construct routes here at home and upload them onto my E units. I will take my Toughbook with its GPS dongle along, but that's for backup. Seems like I have three options: 1.. Reinstall latest and greatest version of CAPN 2.. Install Raymarine Voyager 3.. Install Navionics PC App I sense the technology moving away from large systems like CAPN toward mobile devices. What's the best route looking forward or am I looking at a tech war in progress with no clear winner in sight? Allen Miles s/v Septima C&C 30-2 Hampton VA
