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. Big parts of the mediteranean sea) you get adequate coastlines from zoom level 3km and below; if you zoom out there are only unusable lines mostly off 12 km and more. Answer from Magellan:'There are no plans to add a new basemap'; but for the new Sportrak Marine a new 'Navionics World basemap with coastlines.' Is advertized,so Magellan seems to see this as a problem; maybe Meridian users can get this basemap in the future to overcome this problem (?). - The POI database: Two groups of POIs: ports and services, under services you can choose Fuel,water,repair services,first aid separately or all subcategories together; The database is accessible only from the GPS (similar to address/street in Mapsend Streets) but not from the Computer Software, and 'it is not planned to include this'. - Tidal Information: Magellan support told me that “there is no tidal information on the Meridian”. - The first sold Kit includes > 10 defective map files, up to now i did not get the replacement CD with V 1.OOE.

Summary: You get quite a lot of good marine vector charts, uploadable to your GPS, but without real time tracking and no possibility to download/edit tracks; no tidal Information with the Meridian;you have to have your laptop with you to change maps. If you can live without tracking and track download, they are worth the money, otherwise you will be frustrated. Regards, Ed (As there are no examples on the website: if you are interested in screenshots and do not have access to the yahoo group,a can mail a sample.pdf file). Quote: Originally posted by FelfRik: Hallo Ed, i have some questions after your review: 1/Could you compare the BlueNav maps with Garmins Blue Chart?

No, i could not have a side by side comparison; - concerning the charts i got divergent opinions, one BlueChart user saying 'they seem to be more detailed than BlueCart', another saying '.the Garmin BlueChart wich is based on Transas charts(Much better than Navionics).' ; some saying the Navionics charts contain more POIs for recreational boaters.

I think both charts are of good quality and come from respected marine chart companies. -concerning the features: -Garmins Blue Chart allows real time tracking on the Computer with the registered GPS; and it is possible to download tracks to the PC;both functions not available with BlueNav -the Database of the BlueChart is accessible from the PC only when used with the GPSmap76, whereas it is accessible from the GPS only with BlueNav and a Meridian; -there is no Tidal function in BlueNav with the Meridian, AFAIK BlueChart has this only for the 'Americas'.
