Marine Navigator from legit third party site?

[NickRobinson]

Hi

I want to buy the Visit My Harbour tablet pack which needs Marine Navigator but I do not want to sign up for world domination with Google's 'play' store. (Don't ask... )

It's paid apps I shun, the free stuff is acceptable.

I'm puzzled M Nav or VMH don't offer it direct for sideloading.

Any ideas?

I guess you could search for "Ronald Koenig Marine Navigator apk" or something like that (using DuckDuckGo of course). Maybe it's on Yandex if you prefer Russia's alternative to Google.

Russian sites? Legitimate? (Duckduckgo is new to me, sounds good not to be monitored by advertise
rs though)

So you want more than Google Play can deliver, and the Amazon Appstore leaves you cold. Russian Google competitor Yandex is here to help: they've just launched their own branded app store, creatively titled Yandex.Store. The APK is a freely-available download for any Android device, and after a standard account setup process, you've got access to an impressive selection of mainstream apps. Big titles like Angry Birds, ES File Explorer, SoundHound, Twitter and Opera Mobile are all sitting on the front page. Beneath that is a cache of apps 50,000 strong and growing.
The vast majority of apps on display are free, but there are paid options as well, with support for credit card and cell phone bill payments from dozens of countries including the United States. The store app itself is no slouch, either: it's an appealing mix of the Holo standards in Google Play and the dark theme of the Amazon Appstore. Yandex has partnered with Opera to provide the backend and many of the current apps. All in all, you could do a lot worse, especially if you're using hardware that doesn't have access to official Google apps. Our Russian readers are probably already familiar with Yandex's suite of Android apps and services, including email, maps, navigation, weather, shopping, and quite a bit more.

Haven't tried it myself but you never know.

Have you tried talking to the guys in Visit my Harbour. They were very helpful when I managed to corrupt my system.
