For all sailors/boaters who are interested in the new MapSend BlueNav Chart Kit with uploadable marine charts for Europe I will tell shortly why i would NOT buy this Software as it is released now. The MapSend BlueNav Kit Europe consists of one CD (containing all 191 Navionics Gold small Charts covering the European and mediteranean coast)and one SD Card (32 MB); the charts can be loaded only to this Card after getting an unlock Code from the Vendor or Magellan. You can switch charts, but only one chart can be loaded. Price is about 260 Euros. After checking this Software there are some (i think very substantial) limitations: 1) There are Naval Charts for regions not covered by the default european basemap (land or marine); this regions are very important for sailors/boaters because they include big parts of the Mediteranean Sea(Aegaeis, Adriatic Sea.) If you load a chart e.g.from the turkish coast, you get very faulty and undetailed coast lines until the zoom level of 700 m, and this is a serious limitation for practical use of this software for yachting! If you zoom out from 0.25nm/700m level you are suddenly 5 nm at the sea or on land at the next zoom level of 1.4km!,this makes it almost useless for approaching / leaving a coast or harbour.

It seems to be the situation of using detailed maps without a corresponding basemap. This Problem can only be solved by adding a special Basemap to the package including more detailed coastline for these regions or using the WorldWide BaseMap. Unfortunately the WorldWide BaseMap seems to be uncompatible with Blue Nav,loading a WorldWide Map makes the SD Card unusable for uploading other marine charts! 2) Concerning the PC Software: There is no 'Gps Protocol' or 'GPS log' function (as available in Mapsend Streets or the WorldWide BaseMap), and there is no possibility to load down tracks from the GPSR. So it is not possible to connect the Meridian to the Laptop and see the trackline on the screen! I think this is an other severe limitation of this charts for practical navigation. The missing possibility of downloading tracks makes it even impossible to analyze tracks offline on the Computer screen.

3) A number of charts are defective,(at least 10 in Norway and 1 in Greece) giving a error message 'Severe Error- Data Error'. I heard from my Vendor, there will be a replacement CD in 1 month.I do hope so! Conclusion: The problems mentioned above are severe limitations for practical use of these marine maps. Until this problems are solved / corrected i think it is not worth the money. HTH Ed Maurer.

After 1 month of testing the maps, asking and getting more answers from Magellan support i try to give a summary what you really get with BlueNav and what you should not expect: - Without doubt the Navionics charts are good, and the price of 268 Euros (incl.VAT) for 192 charts covering Europe and the Mediterranean sea seems adequate. - the display of the charts on the monochrome screen is quite good (if you want to see examples there is a Photo Album 'BlueNav' in the photo section of the yahoo meridian group). - there is no possibility for real time tracking, and it is not possible to download a track to the computer!

AFAIK these are the only modern GPS charts without this function. When i wrote to Magellan that this is quite a limitation and if they plan to include it in future Versions of BlueNav i got the answers:-'The Map Send Blue Nav KIT had made to load chartinto the SD-CARD, it is not a navigation software'; -'if you should want a serious navigation tool you should purchase the FX324' and -'Magellan does not plan to include this function in the future'. - the charts cover small regions; you can have only one chart on the SD Card at a time; for a normal sailing trip of one week you will need more than one map, so you have to bring the laptop with you. - for the regions not covered by the standard basemap ( e.g. Plagin nozhi dlya ks 16 dlya deathrun serp 1.
