The charts on
the DVD are updated bi-weekly so you will receive the latest editions. NOAA
Raster Navigational Charts® are full-color, geo-calibrated, high detail,
digital images of NOAA’s entire suite of paper charts. They display beautifully
with all the details found on the paper charts that you are used to using. They
are better though, because you can overlay electronic navigation elements right
on top of the chart. Examples of these elements are your position, marks,
tracks, routes, bearings, and distances. Another great feature is the ability to
zoom in and out. You can see the big picture without the hassle of trying to
spread out a large chart on a small chart table or you can zoom in to see all
the details around your vessel.
The Coast
Pilots, American Practical Navigator, and Navigation Rules are all in Adobe
Acrobat reader (pdf) format making them very easy to use. Acrobat reader is
included on the DVD if you don’t have it.
Turn on the
follow boat feature and your position will be shown in the center of a moving
map. Create routes, find distances, bearings and more with the click of a mouse.
Turn on the Tracks function and create a track of where you have been. Use
created tracks to get back to favorite fishing grounds or return home when bad
weather sets in.
The DVD is menu
driven, including the option to install OpenCPN and the charts on your hard
drive. This makes the system very easy to use. Hardware requirements are
minimal. OpenCPN will run on a 233 mhz computer.

much clearer live.
