Surely there's a sufficient market of Mac and Linux users to justify some kind of non-Windows library for accessing Navionics or CMAP charts.
I don't know what the current market is, but I'd hazard a guess that between current Linux and Mac users who sail, there must be at least 50,000 users world-wide... and non-Windows market share is increasing all of the time.
Whoever offers support first could become the standard for commercial vector cartography on non-Windows boxes.. and would have a killer app like MacENC to push!

Never knowingly overcanvassed!
