OziExplorer is indeed a good program, and I use it for driving in Baja,
but I'm not sure I'd recommend it for people who have happily using the Cap'n, or for that matter, boaters. The Cap'n's claim to fame is real ease-of-use, making it workable for light computer users. Ozi certainly can be used for marine navigation, but it's a complex program that works best for people who like a lot of options and customizability. And to be clear, it doesn't support vector charts, which I believe was the original poster's attraction to Fugawi. Also, it does not have the ability to quilt multiple charts together, a feature available in most of the big navigation products these days. I recently played with the trial version of Rose Point Navigation's Coastal Explorer product, and I was knocked out by it's elegance and simplicity. And it does use those new, free NOAA vector charts. Worth a look: www.rosepointnav.com Aaron Tinling s/v Sweet Destiny www.navagear.com |
