Sorry about the postings - after I had posted them, nothing appeared
back in the groups. I assumed my arcane system architecture was
preventing the postings.
Memory Map/Maptech marine charts are in the BSB format which OziE is
licensed by Maptech to read/display/use. Works well on my laptop, so
figured it should work ok on a CE Navman - and OziE indicates it
should work.
