Winter 42 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Sadly looks like Garmin have ruined the Navionics webapp Someone please tell me that i'm missing something. There used to be a great site on https://webapp.navionics.com/ where I can just quickly measure potential routes etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Screwball 5 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 For simple NZ nav stuff/browsing Wetmaps may be a good alternative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zozza 319 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Nav apps seem to be set up to work best on mobile phones and tablets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alibaba 80 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Yes, I'm sure that somewhere this has all been worked out before - but... I have a small GPS in working order, but I'm getting old [ sob!] and I need a bigger screen. Any recommendations for the best android tablet to use with navionics? - and - since I hate re-inventing the wheel- what's the best way of mounting it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
khayyam 88 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 They do seem to have removed it (or at least moved it), which is too bad. Yes wetmaps is great, but the navionics sonar charts are much more detailed than the LINZ charts in many anchorages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There used to be a great site on https://webapp.navionics.com/ where I can just quickly measure potential routes etc It's still available, I tried my regular Navionics link and it redirected me, here: Garmin | Marine Maps I am a regular user of the Navionics web map. My subscription expired but since I'm doing a refit and not sailing (or going fishing since it's winter) I didn't bother renewing it. I tend to use it when fishing for the sonar contour maps, and use it on my phone when in the yacht when pocking around rocky or lumpy bits. Far more detail than a standard chart plotter, if you need it. Obviously use the web map for passage planning and what not. What I cant understand is Garmin have started sending me emails saying I must update my email so I can continue receiving their emails. I just can't get my head around that, they have my email, cause they just emailed me on it. Then why would a multinational corporation threaten they wont send me sh*t if I don't do something? normally I have to do something to STOP these muppets sending me sh*t. So what is actually going on? I thought Garmin owned Navionics anyway? Are they just bringing it all under one brand? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waikiore 438 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 I still use the Navionics on iphone ipad , but dont update and ignore all requests to, as where I go boating the Navionics is superior to all others and no new rocks have sprung up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably something to do with EU and wider privacy laws. While your old email address may have b een given with implicit consent ("by following this link you accept our marketing sh*t for the rest of your life and possibly into your next life unless you opt out through our byzentine and archane opt out process") that consent now has to be explicit and opt in. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

harrytom 671 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 linz Farm off Ponui has markers but the bloody lights dont work,we ran very close to it a week ago early morning,lucky I have it on plotter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zozza 319 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Both those are on my navionics charts, and I have not updated them for a good 12+ months. Bit of a worry the lights are not working off Ponui...might be part of you know who's cut backs. (Don't mention the war, I mentioned it once and I think I got away with it). 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
