Danny,
If you own an iPad with a GPS built in ie a 3G model, all you need to do is buy
a Navionics app or sim ilia and you are all set for your trip and any other
future trips too. I like Navionics enough that I keep a dedicated iPad for the
boat aboard in a Griffinmilitary spec case. Works gr
So what I have available fur older devices is. An old android Samsung galaxy 3
phone and a waterproof case, an old android viewsonic G-tab tablet, no
protective case and a not to old dell venue pro tablet with windows 10, this
has a rugged case but not water proof, water resistant and it charge
MX Mariner for Android devices. Free charts and works with active captain.

Purchase Navionics Boating HD for your tablet while it is still available. It
is supposed to be discontinued very soon and may have been discontinued already

Mine was broken when i bought the boat. I replaced it and promptly stepped on
it and broke it again. i installed a lexan guard over it and problem solved. By

As far as I can see, the only problem with not cross connecting the water tanks
would be the resulting complexity of your fresh water system and the need to
get access to all the valves every time you want to change tanks.
You will need a line from each tank to the inlet of your fresh water
I have been using an old IBM Thinkpad and OpenCPN for years and it all works
great. You get spoiled and “real” marine chartplotters seem quite lacking.
OpenCPN is free and all the charts are free too.

The glue was blood red on a white panel, so I ended up having my sailmaker

Navionics is discontinuing Boating HD? I haven't heard anything of this.
Do you mean just the HD version? Navionics is very much alive and working

I bought the non-HD version for my N10, because it was cheaper and the
resolution is just fine. Plus I share it across my Android phone

Thanks for the response. I guess I'm not communicating my setup very

I find OpenCPN better than SeaClear in almost every way. SeaClear has not been

Just a thought...
If you can use a 386/Win 98 for OpenCPN, one option to consider, if you want to
be somewhat immune to the water damage etc. is a second hand ToughBook by
Panasonic. They can be had for around $200-$300 (the older, the cheaper). I
have one that has an older Pentium in it and ru
One of the best (Android) apps is the Drag Queen. It got quite a good review

TigerDirect.com currently has somewhat newer refurbed toughbooks (off of

your G-tab should have a GPS built in; same with the phone. The Dell Venue

It seems that Navionics is the primary choice. It works on Android and does
