Default USA Electronic Charts and software?

Hi

I've found the USA free to download charts on the NOAA web site.

What software can be used to display these charts?

Might want to look at Coastal Explorer unless you're looking for a
freebie. Then look at fugawi.

If you have an Apple Macintosh, the best program now available is
MacENC .... works with both the raster BBS charts and the ENC vector
charts. Less than $100.
http://www.gpsnavx.com/MacENC/ free demo version available.

Gordon,

1. I downloaded the NOAA maps and installed them - the files show up with
the file suffixes of .KAP and .BSP

2. I downloaded and installed SeeMyEnc - it requires files of the following
3 types, SENC, S-57 or DNC Tiles

3. SeeMyEnc will not import or open the .KAP or .BSP files

What am I doing wrong - if anything???
