Title: Data exchange between MacENC & iNavX
#13
I can't imagine where you boat to believe that Internet is common on the water.  While many marinas in the US have some sort of wifi service the same can be hard to find out of country.    I cruise 4-5 months a year and rarely is Internet available other than at larger ports. The idea that Internet or even cell coverage is generally available is a huge misunderstanding.  Yes I have a satellite phone but the idea of making two calls to send and receive email via satellite is cumbersome and expensive, let alone the challenge of integrating the iPad into the system. iNavX cleverly relies on navigation and AIS data from other systems via wifi.  Unclear why it is reluctant to make my created route data available via wifi for the benefit of other systems.  I am with the other posters, please consider delivering on what users need instead of forcing them through impractical and/or expensive hoops.  The whole concept of planning with an iPad is elegant.  Getting our route plans to other systems should be simple and ALWAYS available as well.  Then I will buy and recommend iNavX to my fellow boaters.
