I am thinking of buying one of the new A50 plotter units as I wish to have more chart resolution than my current RC400 mounted at the helm.
The A50 can display AIS target info which would be a bonus on top of a 4x resolution improvement, however the Raymarine docs don't mention whether they compute and display bearing at CPA (bCPA). After using a laptop AIS program for 3 years I find bCPA essential for collision avoidance decision making.
I doubt many here have installed a new A50 or A70 as yet but could someone confirm if the Cxx and Exx plotters display bCPA?
