Faroe Island Passage Planing and Cruising resources

[steveeasy]

if anyone manages to open it please share.
Also if anyone has any other useful info or access to charts I’d be interested. Perhaps a tidal atless is the way to go.
I am hoping to leave for Stornaway on 13th May, of course depending on weather. May purchase Navionics charts.

Usually you can hold down the appropriate letter to get diacritical options like ã å ā etc

Ok,
Did what bikedaft suggested. Copied and searched rak app. Found a link and hey presto got the app installed. Thanks.

Now can you find it in good old simple English or do I need to translate it all ?

Funny enough I was talking to the captain of an impressive surver ship from the Faroes this afternoon.
He is likely to be sailing back tomorrow.

I also followed the suggestion and it did bring me to the Playstore app.
However, I'm still being informed that it will not function on either of my android devices.

Can you let us know what device you installed this on, please?

(I checked my Active Pad and it's also "incompatible", as expected)

Hmm, latest version I have is 13... if it's only installable on post 2020 devices that seems pretty limiting...
