PC Navigation requires, at a minimum, these four components:
1. Navigation Software
DigiBOAT Pty Ltd provides this for Windows users as Software-On-Board (SOB). SOB is free of charge for a 3 month trial period, and thereafter reverting to a free LITE version or pay only USD50 for the unrestricted Licensed version.
2. Electronic (Digital) Charts
C-Map Electronic Charts are the industry leader and are fully compliant with SOB. SOB will read MAX or NT/NT+ format C-Map charts (either cartridge or CD-ROM versions).
3. Computer
Any recent model laptop or desktop with at least 128Mb RAM, running Windows™ 2000 or newer operating system.
4. Positioning Device (GPS)
Almost any GPS manufactured since 1993 should work with SOB. The GPS must be NMEA 0183 compatible. Some older models may require data interface boxes which may no longer be available. Any GPS manufactured in the past 5-8* years is sure to be suitable, and apart from requiring a data cable (a standard accessory), will be pre-configured to work with little or no setup. Modern USB or Bluetooth connected GPS units are suitable for use with SOB. 

* Be sure to confirm that the GPS has NMEA-0183 output capability (this note particularly applies to Garmin GPS)
