Have you guys been to:

Where Google Maps and satellite views get the marine chart overlays?
Very, very cool. I'm a bit skeptical though about using it for actual
navigation. It's running and updating so slowly on my Time Warner
broadband cable connection that I could easily get from the middle of
Portland Harbor to the rocks in the time it's taken to do a zoom.

I suppose if you have a poor connection, it would be an issue, but relying
on it without a non-electronic backup would be foolish. If you have a decent
connection, using it is one thing; relying on it is another.
