Hey Trouts Dream I noticed you're in Calgary and so am I perhaps we should go sailing sometime.

Right on!!

We would probably be surprised how many aviators are out there sailing!!

Right on Jim I fly an A320.....seems many of us pilots are sailors.....seems like a natural to us I guess.

I think navionics supplies chart data to other companies like raymarine etc....but dont quote me on it.

I would think if you had a waterproof case for an ipad that would be ultimate!!

Its true the navionics app does not require cell phone signal as the info is downloaded onto the phone and the GPS does not require cell signals at least on the iphone 3gs and 4.

Would be even better on an ipad I'm sure.

Iphone has some awesome Anchor alarm apps using the GPS

I have an etec 90 on my 26M and the more I learn about it the more I am impressed Did you know that; -it will run without a battery. After a pull start without a battery it will run. No other marine engine will do this that I know of. Aircraft engines are the only other engines that I know of that c...
