Does anyone here have experience with the new Furuno MaxSea software
for Navnet?

At first reading of the specs it looks like this software has the
capability of turning a PC into more or less a fully functional Navnet
node with remote (or secondary) display of chart plotter and radar
data via an ethernet connection.

Can anyone confirm this, and/or share some Furuno tech contact
information?

Yes. It works with a basic PC or Laptop. Waypoints, Radar, GPS information
are transported via TCPIP packets.
