Anybody done a software update on the Raymarine E90W plotter ?
My 2011 produced unit is on software version 2.49. and according to Raymarine site the latest (and final?) version available is v2.65 from July 2012.
I wouldn't normally bother to change software, but we recently installed AIS and the main update with V2.65 is listed as "Improved AIS performance including increase of Class B AIS target time-out period correct TCPA calculations". Correct TCPA seems worthwhile.
Anybody done this update and if so, is it a safe and stable update - or to be avoided.
(Clearly the theoretical mechanics of doing this are listed on the Raymarine site - http://www.raymarine.co.uk/view/?id=4000 Its the advisability that concerns me here)
