I would say that to a boater a Mac should look just right - it looks
nice and works well under all circumstances, like a dependeable boat.

Only if you run Windows on it. Most of the navigation apps do not run

You will find navigation applications for the Mac as well.
I'd rather not have my radar running Windows, sorry.

I don't know anyone who has their radar on a PC but I guess it is

supplement to dedicated Furuno equipment. They are both quite
reliable. The secret is to keep your PC uncluttered with a lot of
other stuff.
