pretty good deal, even if you only end up using one or two of the discs.
You could, I suppose, using the freebie NOAA charts but they don't have the
same level of detail as found on maptech's. Or the depth bathy charts, I
don't know that Coastal Explorer can use them.

Coastal Explorer is an amazingly friendly program. Well worth the price in
either flavor.

Does anybody know if there is a significant difference between Maptech
Chart
Navigator Pro and Coastal Explore by Rosepoint--other than the price
differential ($100)? Rosepoint seems to have written both programs, and I
am
loathe to waste $100.


My Rosepoint came with all the charts on a separate cd.
