Running my Navionics gold charts on PC Plotter, and, IIRC, also my Lowrance plotter last season, I noticed that it was very difficult to see the TSS and impossible to find directional arrows in the lanes. Is this something peculiar to Navionics or a set-up issue? help appreciated.

Ahh, I think perhaps you should use paper charts and use the electric stuff for show.
 
tracks

ON my garmin mapsource I updated position of tss by drawing a track/route in purple around the edges of updated position I don t know If you can on navonics but it it marks the updated position really well
 
I have Navionics on a Lowrance /Eagle and I can see the purple line denoting TSS Zone.When the cursor is put on the line it pops up with TSS Zone but only at 8m range and less.I cant see any direction arrows in the N Hinder TSS I am looking at.I agree it could be highlighted alot better, but Plotters are an aid to navigation anyway(so they tell us).I still use my Yeoman on longer passages but I would hope that people are looking at a chart as well.

red to red would normally give a clue
