No signal=no chart. So out of cell range or in weak signal places they would be essentially useless. Dropping your phone call is one thing, dropping your plotter is quite another. Great info., thanks. |
You are being led astray by bullsh!t.
The iPad works properly, it's not a rip off. The
GPS works in the MIDDLE of the ocean as do the
charts. You do NOT need to be connected to the web, cell phone or near a tower for the
GPS or Charts.
You really need to sit with someone who knows what they are talking about and have a look at one. If you are anywhere near me please feel free to come look.
I am in St Augustine, Florida. And I'm sure any person near you would do the same.
