Lots of limitations with tablets. Best approach is to load up the offical up to date ECN charts to Open cpn, Expedition or time zero, then overlay with aerial photos.

This is part of a bigger problem of all "consumer" oriented proprietary systems that have lots of market power. Imagine using a Windows system to run navionics, do route planning, access weather data, cruising guides, ships logs, internet access, etc. and windows forces an update as you are sailing offshore on a passage or when you have a slow or unreliable connection leaving your laptop dead. This happened to "How to Sail Oceans". I know many sailors aren't tech guys. But being competent on open source platforms, hardware, operating system, and applications is a core skill if you're going to rely on digital navigation. For instance a ruggedized IP68 Linux tablet. No it won't be as slick as an ipad for camera and entertainment. But its a good idea to make something like that the host for critical apps, and use the ipad as a satellite device.

we need a free software solution for ocean maps, not the proprietary garbage that entirely relies on the manufacturer

I'm studying paper charts. It's necessary for the grade. But I like it. Chart Plotters are awesome, but the thery behind must be very clear. Abracos amigo.

21st-century navigators have a chart erased and are lost in a forest full of trees. Navigate by general paper charts and learn to navigate by analytical dead reckoning applying spherical trigonometry. Don't complain and look for a solution, otherwise you'll continue carrying your heavy load. I've had expired Navionics charts for a year and a half, and they're still on my support, and I'm using something superior to Navionics SailGrib Pro, even cheaper, and it supports electronic charts from several suppliers, even expired Navionics. That's why you're bald. Put your brain to work and stop complaining so much. It seems like EVERYTHING has to be free. If I owned Navionics, I'd charge you triple its value for protesting against something that isn't yours. Respect private property, and if you don't like it, learn to sail seriously.
