Re: Stus-List Open CPN (phorvati .)

Yep, I had that happen once, pre-ram mount. The Bimini seems to shade it well enough, and I generally leave the iPad below unless needed for a harbour entrance or channel. (Not terribly demanding pilotage around here - north shore of Lake Ontario). I may add a mounting ball near the

Graham/all - to be clear, to me the issue is not so much being able to update one Manufacturer's firmware from another's device, it's about not being able to update it at all, without a MFD (hence the 'accessories to MFD subject line'). Raymarine could easily have elected to permit updates by

Re: Stus-List spreader lights - do you use them?
