Navionics Software CD

I've got a Navionics NavPlanner unit (card reader and card) but have lost the software. Does anyone know anywhere that does just the disc? Dont fancy another £99 for a CD.

I have one, we might be able to sort something

If your kit is Raymarine, the Ray planner works just as well with the Navionics reader and it's free on the website.

Thanks Wilk, we have Lowrance, not tried their waypoint app. Would be useful if Lowrance looked into doing a similar downloadable app.

Meh NavPlanner CD is Version 4, XP & Vista, but seems to wag it's tail ok in Windows 7 Home.

THe sooner that navionics sort out something like the Garmin Mapsource I will be happy. I would acutally consider "Going Garmin" just for that reason even though I really like the Lowrance stuff.

I quite agree, these programs arent that big and it's a real pain not being able to download it.

A lot of dive club colleagues have the iPhone Navionics app and charts on their phones - for about £14! Lowrance and Navionics need to think about this! Before Apple move into waterproof iPhones - now I'n just being silly.

Problem now solved, thank you forum!
