I can confirm that the free app “HW VSP3 - Virtual Serial Port” from The Czech people “HW Group” works well over wifi to connect a Windows 7 PC running Oziexplorer with an RPi running OpenPlotter and OpenCPN.

I would add that, having looked at a number of these apps, the HW one has a particularly clear GUI. You just enter (assuming it’s default) the 10.10.10.1 for the Pi and 10110 in the obvious boxes, select a free COM number and press start.
