Personal computers (PCs) and the marine applications they run are increasingly popular on boats of all sizes. Learn how using a PC on board can enhance your boating enjoyment by giving accurate and timely information and by taking much of the work and uncertainty out of navigation. "A Boatowner's Guide to Using PCs on Board helps you through the process of choosing a PC as well as suitable software for tidal calculations, route planning, chart plotting, performance analysis, weather information, communications, and Internet access. When you combine electronic charts, marine navigation software, and your boat's GPS you can watch your boat's progress across the chart display, calling up local tides and currents with a mouse click. From a vector-based chart you can switch to a nighttime display that shows the locations of nearby lighted navigation aids. Interface the PC to a single sideband receiver and see the latest weather maps and satellite images for your area, or send and receive e-mail messages anywhere in the world. If you're heading offshore, you can still have fax, e-mail, or even full Internet access through the growing number of satellite communication services. And of course there are plenty of other uses for a PC on board, from vessel management programs to sailing simulators to computer games.
