Hi, Does the tablet have GPS?

I can't see how the marine manufacturers can warrant the super high prices for their 10" touchscreen plotters anymore. £1000-£1500 at least. An equivelant tablet is less than £200. Surely adding a waterproof enclosure doesn't cost the difference. Another 'marine' rip off.

True! Our Samsung tablet costed £79 and we simply stick it in an old waterproof map case which we had from our hiking days.

I use Navionics on my smartphone most of the time. Have it on my iPad as backup as well as a couple of old fashioned GPSs as backup. The app has frozen on the phone before - coming into an unfamiliar anchorage which was a bit, erm, annoying! I think perhaps because the phone has lots of other apps and a fullish memory. But I keep the iPad very clean. I'm keen to put OpenCPN on my laptop too. Can't have too many backups. Thanks for the video.

Cheers Paul. Yes, we've heard good things about Navionics. As many backups as possible is great. We have a GPS, paper charts, and 2 laptops with GPS receiver and OpenCPN installed on them. Hehe. Backups!
