Sorry, David, but the price isn't competitive with SeaClearII, which is free
and uses the NOAA charts as well.


Not to support the spammer who's site I have not looked at but
Seaclear II only uses raster charts while the spam man is claiming to
be able to use S-57 vector charts. I've been using Seaclear II lately
because it displays AIS data and I like it even though I generally
prefer vector. Seaclear doesn't make any attempt to stitch charts
together and while I think that is wise it does mean you can find
yourself navigating on the margins of a chart. None the less it is
quite functional and the price is unbeatable. You can get Seaclear
