			<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone I am a newbie to navigation having just got my first cabin boat 28 ft. Trying to use inavx and finding it has some issues or not obvious settings have done all the tutorials. Every waypoint I add will only change name using a google voice recognition pop up I can never get a ketboard to type it it. Is there a way to disable the voice recognition or just get a keyboard. Google never gets it even close to right.<br />
Thanks in advance<br />
I am boating on great lakes in canada and using a android tablet<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Greetings:  Not sure if anyone is still following the MacENC threads ( though it looks like a 64 bit version will be coming out from NavStation, apparently free for previous owners) but if any legacy users are there I wonder if you have any insights on this issue...<br />
<br />
I used MacENC successfully (which I have been for many years on a Mac mini running High Sierra) on the first leg of a trip.  The next day began I having issues both with my Nexus instruments network and MacENC.  Seemed to have sorted out the Nexus issue (? a loose connection) but MacENC now shows correct GPS info from Nexus in the GPS monitor window and continuously updated correct position on the chart except the boat icon remains the circle and dot, not the triangle as it did before.  Also when following a route it behaves like it's not getting any GPS info in that it doesn't show any of the ETA or DTW info as before and doesn't advance waypoints like before.  Also the GPS monitor window used to show a compass with the red dot for the course to steer but doesn't do that any more.<br />
<br />
Strangely if I connect to and open the Instruments window all the data from Nexus is correctly reported AND there's a red dot in the compass that seems to correspond to the proper course to steer.  So clearly the Nexus system is delivering GPS, wind, compass and depth info to MacENC but it seems within MacENC that's not being communicated to the route following function.<br />
<br />
Anyone encountered that or have suggestions?  Thanks<br />
<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Kamilo Beach is located on the Big Island of Hawaii.  The beach is in a remote location on the southern tip of the Big Island and is the Southernmost location in the United States.  I sailed to the Big Island to Kamilo Beach.  The access to the beach from the ocean is not safe as the currents are wild from all directions, and the beach is fronted by volcanic reefs, lava rock reefs that are difficult if not impossible to navigate.  I drove a Jeep to Kamlio Beach.  The roughly 60-mile drive from took nearly 3 hours from Kailua-Kona to Kamilo Beach was mostly four-wheeling over massive lava flows.  The lava rock made for interesting and challenging off-road driving, you can see a video of the road to Kamilo Beach here: <a href="https://www.opdera.org/gallery" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">https://www.opdera.org/gallery</a><br />
<br />
Kamilo Beach is now nicknamed Trash Beach because of the extreme amount of trash the ends up on the beach.  Several tons of trash are removed every year by volunteers yet the trash is still more apparent than sand.  Visit the website to view drone footage of the beach, the driving conditions to access the beach, and photos of what we say there.<br />
