I guess when you are on the water - you never have too much. Nice looking display of electronics there Michael.

With all that stuff, what do you use for an excuse when you make a wrong turn? Kidding aside, what software are you running on you laptop. I am converting to laptop navigation and I am looking for options.

All those thingies are useless if you run hard a ground, except the radio.

The electronic gadgetry is cool, but what I really like is the VDO's.

Ready,
It looks as if your helm is all the way forward, any chance of posting a picture of your bridge? I have contemplated moving my helm all the way forward behind the windscreen and adding a bench behind, so four people can enjoy the view from above. right now it is really only for two.

I don't have active nav software on the laptop... CMap charts and use laptop for planning.... that is Active Captain live over my Verizon WiFi card.
