Just to add... I have CrossOver and it works for just about everything I have tried except programs needing special hardware drivers.
I have, for example, the UKHO Digital Chart Catalogue working fine - it downloads the catalogue and updates data over the internet with no problems.
With programs needing serial drivers, more limited success. There is a recipe for getting serial drivers to work, but it is fickle and unsupported. I managed to run Garmin's AIS600 utility to update my AIS600 unit, but not, so far, Actisense hardware.
I would be interested in hearing from anyone with experience of serial drivers.
