That does not improve the confidence in such charts.

Interesting. Where did you learn that from?

That is what they say at "HanseNautic", to my knowledge the most important house for seacharts in Germany. They are even warning not to use those charts. See:

NV. Verlag German raster charts are available from x-traverse. These work with GPSNavX and MacENC (and iNavX) ..

Also very soon we will be expanding the chart selection for MacENC and GPSNavX via X-Traverse ..

The goal is to offer a one stop shop for charts for GPSNavX, MacENC and iNavX.

Hello all. Here's my question; I went to the Fugawi X-Traverse website and found a lot of very cheap charts ... but ... they were for iNav Ver 2.

The inavx.net/xtraverse.html website says:
"Using the The X-Traverse Application for Mac OS X, selected maps and charts purchased at Fugawi X-Traverse may be activated and downloaded for use in GPSNavX and MacENC."

So ... (crossing fingers) can I use the iNavx xtraverse program to convert the Fugawi iNavx chart for use in MacENC ?? (crossing fingers AND holding breath)

Yes, many of the charts from x-traverse can be used in both iNavX and MacENC:

When purchased they can be activated and downloaded to each respective application.

Great ... but can the charts from X-traverse purchased for the iNavX (in the Fugawi chart (from the website below) the blue check mark under the column for iNavX only) be used with MacENC???

Here's the website I'm talking about:

The x-traverse table you reference accurately reflects which charts can be used with iNavX and/or MacENC and/or GPSNavX. I expect the chart offerings for all platforms to expand going forward.
