- Downloaded 0.10.0 OP from the website & installed it
- Updated everything from the update tab in OP (Raspbian, OpenCPN, OP to 0.15.1)

- Headless, VNC to Nexus 7 2012
- Signal K to 'phone
- I will scan my charts for Lisbon (or maybe make a copy stand for my SLR and then stitch photos)
- I have bought John Thorn's MAPC2MAPC software to calibrate scans
- Just waiting for a GPS and a 12V -> 5V DC supply from Sailoog's site to complete

Looks great, well done! Couple thoughts, I prefer using the opencpn android app, it's quicker than VNC and still uses all the wifi ais/gps etc data. There are 2 versions in the app store, the free one is old and not supported, the paid version is the real one, doesn't cost much.
Also, for charts have you looked at ge2kap ? Using that and sasplanet you can make charts from navionics.
