Hi Walito,

Welcome to the forum. But before you get the admins angry please don't double post your questions, OK?

Re: OpenCPN General

See the settings under Options/Ships/Routes/Points.

Re: OpenCPN General

I agree that a tutorial on setting up the GPS would be useful and will put that on my TO DO list. (Presently two-blocked on making charts and anchorages)

No Help information for Chart Downloader

Information on the Chart Downloader plugin seems to be missing from the OpenCPN Help file.

Any chance this will be added in the future?
