It is stiil a great tool and mapmakers do not like it.

Has anyone used a yeoman plotter? what are they like? are they worth
having?

Fifteen years ago it was a great tool, in spite of the space that the
board
took up. While GPS displays will never be as large as the charts used on
the
Yeoman, I think GPS Nav-programs made the plotter-boards obsolete a long
time ago. It might still appeal to anyone who appreciates being able to
work
on a chart, having most of the tools of a nav-system available at the
board
versus changing miniature GPS display screens all the time ;-)
