My experience with C-Map dates back to the early nineties on a variety of
brands.
All of it was with cartographjy in the Great Lakes and St.Lawrence seaway.
And all of it was better than what I saw yesterday. Evidently Furuno's
Navnet display does not do as good a job of interpreting the chart module
data as I had expected.
Because Furuno is also used extensively by commercial vessels I was
expecting quality and performance much closer to what I have seen on
commercial ships.
So the real cause of the poor appearance is Navnet not necessarily C-Map.
regards
Arild
