...But that Garmin 76 sure looks a good buy.  I don't know whether WAAS
will
be, or is applicable in the South Pacific area, or whether manufacturers
like Garmin 'regionalise' their factory software.  It must be nice to
have
US tide tables, but only  if you are in the US!
	 Perhaps another Paddlewiser Downunder can enlighten me.  David,
are you
out there in SAR HQ?

Hi Peter

We do have some great software here for man-over-board drift plots and
other SAR incidents but its big time software runing on large systems.
All our charts are based on ARCinfo and Seafarer software which is very
expensive. Tide charts are available on CD I see what I can found out
about downloading. 

Cheers
David
