Yeoman Plotter and laptop

[jimi]

Is it possible to use a yeoman plotter on the laptop screen if I lose my paper charts?

To carry your thought processes to the next level have you considered the problems that may arise should you lose your Yeoman Plotter.

It's no good, Jimi; if you spill your beer at the chart table you just have to buy new charts

Don't you just fold the charts small and poke them through that little slot on the side of the laptop?

I can tell you're no stranger to modern technology. Personally I find that its ok to do this with the charts from the Small Craft Folios but the full size Admiralty jobs are too thick once folded. A bit like me really!

For full size Admiralty jobs you use the sliding tray they provide, but you must be sure to insert it the right way up. Could you imagine how silly it would look if you put them in upside down.

It's probably best to paste the charts onto your laptop screen to ensure that they are not lost in the first place.

Don't see the relevance of yeoman plotters to charts myself as I thought they were for yeomen to navigate around their farms.

Only bought mine at the show because it looked so very easy to use. I thought all I needed to do was plug it in! Then I found it needed to be wired up! Still it makes a good chart table.

Re: Pasting charts

If you are using W2K the clipboard will allow you to recover lost charts..

Don\'t bother

Feed the NMEA input in thro' the RS232 port and stow the Yeoman.

Use super glue; it's no use for anything else. I always find that it will stick anything except whatever I am trying to glue at that moment.
