Default Paper charts are for Wannabees

Of course it's wasted if he invests it on himself and not on me.

Navstation. Holy mackerel. What do you think you've got? An
Atlantic freighter. Charts whether paper or electronic belong
where the helmsman can see them and nowhere else.

Huh?
What do you sail, an Atlantic freighter?
How do you keep the chart in front of the helmsman on a yacht?



I don't you upsidedowner. I place a screen with an electronic
chart in front of the helmsman.

Of course you permafrosted porkchop.
But you said you put a paper chart up, never ever had a paper chart
in the cockpit, too easily lost!



I am in total agreement you headhopping kangaroo. I hope the NG
doesn't hold that against me. If you want the helmsman to know where
you are going you'll have to give him an electronic chart. Paper
charts in the cockpit are too easíly lost. On the other hand the
Moroon could probably use the 12 bucks but then again he'd just
waste it on Rum.
