Title: PassagePlus now supports NZMariner charts
#1
I am pleased to announce that PassagePlus v1.4, released today, adds support for Land Information New Zealand's NZMariner charts, the official raster charts of New Zealand waters.

NZMariner uses the same underlying chart format and security systems as ARCS and the two look the same and function identically once opened. There are currently 159 charts in the NZMariner collection. They fit on a single CD, and when you purchase the CD (which is very reasonably priced) you automatically get permits to open all 159 charts.

NOTE: For existing users who are using ARCS charts only, there are no new features in v1.4 compared to v1.3.4, so there is no need to download this version unless you want to try NZMariner charts.

IMPORTANT: because NZMariner chart permits are stored on the CD, PassagePlus cannot open NZMariner charts unless either the Update CD or the Charts CD was issued after October 2006. Confirm with your retailer when purchasing that the Update CD is October 2006 or later.

Regards
Jon
