On the chart table you can see (from left to right) the radar display (monochrome Raymarine RL70 plus), phone for calling the engineering officer in the engine room (just kidding), AIS receiver (displays ship traffic on PC), HF radio, VHF radio, backup GPS, and a few odds and ends. The blue box behind the HF radio is a cell phone amplifier. I have a card for the PC and have been able to get Internet access several miles off shore. My Pactor modem is on the shelf to the right of the chart table.

In Probabally what is the "most stuff ever" spread in or around the P365 chart table, here is a shot of S/V Dosia in the process of attempting to fix a laptop...it this shot doesn't illustrate the Crusing ideal of "fixing things in exotic places" then nothing does! Thanks Drew and Hailey for the entertainment!

Quote from: "Doug Ritchie"On this picture, if you look to the upper left of the monitor, you'll see the green light that comes on when email is waiting. The unit itself was small enough to mount behind that panel on the lower left side. This was also a very easy run to the computer cabinet, which was once the wine cabinet.

This picture shows my 15" flatscreen running my Cmap program, the waterproof flexible keypad and the instrument repeater showing depth, speed, windspeed, water temp. The Magellan GPS is strictly used as a position link to my Furuno radar screen in the cockpit, the Garmin runs the Cmap, and the Skymate GPS unit is mounted on the stern rail. The Raytheon sideband can just be seen on the far right.
Mike, I used a sheet of 1/2" marine grade ply, covered with white Formica.

All,
Check out the picture of the Navstation on page 34 of this month's (February) "SAIL" magazine... The caption suggests that it is Pearson 36 Cutter... If true, it is beautiful Navstation...

The small antenna which is sticking to the ssb receiver at the left is to watch digital TV for the free to air broadcast on mine macbook, By the way I like to kill bugs ;D.
on mine wish-list is a good and if possible free chart plotting program for the mac ???
Dutchie,
For Free MAC chart program you may want to try Polar Navy. Works great with PC. Download all charts from NOAA site. Both RNC's and ENC's and for $33 will connect to NMEA Compatible GPS and plot your position.

This year I used Opencpn its a opensource nav program and handles ENC BSB and cm93 charts. altough the mac version is still stuc at version 1.36 it works great.
The NOAA website I keep in mind and I will download the charts when I am to cross the big Pond to your side ;)
