Most of them are not even on guides but were recommended to us by others. Others we simply stumbled upon. Now I am sharing my list with you below (click on the coordinates for a map view).

Is the iPad the future of marine electronics?

Great! I hope he enjoys the book. He should be able to use the index to look up English words, phrases! Tell him to let me know how it works for him.
This is a nice site - it will be fun to explore and I will definitely mention it to other friends.
By the way, Imray is now carrying the new edition, so it should be easier to get in Europe.

Franc, the 40/43 group sounds great. Always good to share info, expecially on a new model like ours.
Happy New Year
Mike
