Doesn't seem too different from the beta i was using, but fantastic software for free

 

[Tony Cross]

Thanks for the "heads-up".

It's the only one I use .... and now set-up for others in the Club.

Do you know if the utility for georeferencing images has been updated? I had trouble working with it when I tried.

Never tried it, actually never heard of it Is it plug in? I'm getting very fond of the logbook plugin.

Thanks for that.
I wish that they would work out how to port it to Android.

Are you thinking of the SeaClear MapCal utility? I'm not aware of this feature in OpenCPN.

google ge2kap, by p higgins for that, there is a section for referencing scanned images along with various conversions, and the ability to create geo refed google earth images. works well.

Worth downloading, there are a number of recent changes. I've found the charts take a long time building up their database.
On this site you can have the same Zeeland charts merged into one download. They load a lot faster:
http://www.escaut.nl/waypoints/waypoints.html#zeeuwse_inland_enc.
The same site also has recent waypointlists in different formats. Via 'routes' you can import the list into OpenCPN.
However, I haven't been able to find the right settings to display the buoyage labels on these charts permanently.

I've just loaded up the new version and noted that it changed my Tide Harmonic data to Xtide which has Poole harmonic data which is good, but I use WXtide which has harmonics for europe which Xtide doesn't.

A feature of the new version is that it will accommodate more than one set of harmonic data if the second set is pointed to in a different folder in /program files/opencpn.

Thanks for that.
I wish that they would work out how to port it to Android.

MX Mariner is available on Play store for a small sum.
It is OpenCPN by another name as far as i can see.
It works brilliantly on my Galaxy SIII.
Mind you all New Zealand charts are available as an official free download that works with OpenCPN and MX Mariner.
Cheers
