Default Cap'n Navigator and NOAA download question(s)

Skip,

I also have Cap'n Mosaic and I have never been able to get the downloadable
vector charts to work with the Capn.

The raster charts do work well in a couple of formats. I download and expand
them into a file of charts under the capn Voyager folder on your c drive.
Then open the capn and click on charts then on set or refresh chart paths.
With this you can tell the capn where to look on the computer for charts.
Open a file in the top box and recognized charts will show in the small box
to the right and the path will be displayed below. Click add path and that
folder's path will be listed in the list below. Note that if you use this
method you have to specify all of the folders that you want to include. The
Capn can also search for charts but will not do that if you have specified
folders in this function.

Cheers
