hello all
I have never owned an electronic chart plotter for my boat... I have always sailed boat under 30' on lakes in my home area... I have recently purchased a 1971 Morgan 35' sailboat... she is a wonderful boat, beautiful lines, roomy inside... I plan to sail her to many new exotic locations...
the descission facing me now is, should I go with a garmin gpsmap chart plotter, a tablet with sea clear II, or just my laptop with sea clear... I have sea clear II on my laptop now, but am hesitant to place it in the cockpit when I am sailing... I do not want it to get wet, which is why I am looking at a garmin or tablet to use in the cockpit...
I am looking for suggestions or experienced recommendations with this...
thank you for your help
sincerely
Jess
