Datamarine's ^Chartlink' Adds New Dimension To Loran/Satnav Navigation

Datamarine adds a new dimension to loran and Satnav navigation with the introduction of the Model 7000 Datamarine Chartlink.

The Chartlink delivers vital navigation information quickly and in an easy-to-understand form by translating loran or Satnav information into an easily recognizable electronic plot of the boat's position, track of where it has been, and course to new waypoints. The visual presentation of charted information also makes the Chartlink a very useful tool for preliminary cruise planning without the necessity of searching through a pile of charts.

The Chartlink is operated by moving the tracking ball or pushing a button to call up various charts, zoom in or out or then to three or more levels of magnification, and store up to 100 waypoints, providing an instant determination of the latitude and longitude of waypoints and the boat's range and bearing to them.

Charts that show major navigational features are stored on lowcost cartridges that can hold an average of 10 charts. Charts for most parts of the world are available on cartridges.
