West Coast of Scotland charts
For those of you that use funcy electronic charts as well as the paper ones- Anteres Charts has just released their 2013 chart folio of the west coast anchorages.
For those that dont know these charts are extremely detailed and run seamlessly on yer ipad with Memory Map.
They make running aground so much more precise...

Other flavours of charting software are available. I see that they would work with OpenCPN too.wully wrote: run seamlessly on yer ipad with Memory Map.

Most importantly, do they show Claymore's Rock in Cuan Sound?

Re: West Coast of Scotland charts
We got tunes onto Erica's phone via USB, the phone came up as an external drive won't the iPad do the same?
The Acer don't have a CD or DVD drive, I put stuff on that with an SD card stolen out of my camera either directly or via a USB card reader.
I don't have an iPad either.
