Another solution would be to quilt the raster charts in iNavX which would be a very welcome addition.
Not wanting to beat a very dead horse, but this from Navionics perhaps explains the situation better than my previous post...
Q.>What is the difference between the free NOAA data and Navionics Mobile maps in the US?
A: Navionics award winning cartography provides:
-the most comprehensive marine and recreational port data available.
- the best available accuracy.
- the best quality and most detail.
- seamless vector charts providing clear, uncluttered detail at every zoom level, opposed to raster charts which present a single image of a scanned paper chart.
- Mobile applications are specifically designed to run on mobile smartphones.
- free Mobile updates with additional new features to existing users who are automatically notified through their iTunes account.
Q.>I have purchased the iNavX application from iTunes, do I purchase the Navionics chart for my iNavX directly from iTunes?
A. No. The Navionics Mobile Apps that work with your iNavX application are only available through iNavX and X-traverse. The Navionics Mobile Apps purchased through iTunes are bundled and contain both the Navionics Application and the Charts for the region you selected. The Navionics Mobile Charts available on iNavX/X-traverse websites contain only the charts to work with the iNavX Application.
