I am sure some bright spark on here can tell me.
Europe doesn't include all of the UK...not sure that justifies the price or even answers your question.

Just in case you buy Europe thinking it's a better deal...

Actually, I thought the pricing was pretty good. Europe, including Italy, Greece, Spain and Portugal £34, UK and Holland, £44. Sounds about right to me

Hey, not bad!
I downloaded (and got very confused re loading additional charts) and it runs rather nicely.
I would say that £44 of your English pounds is very good considering that it is £300 !!! for the chip itself.

Didn't say it was. I thought you were English. Before you were a Channel Islander. Or a Manxman.

True enough Brian , but if you bought it 18 months ago IIRC it was only about £15 !

Bought the Navionics UK & Holland App for Android a couple of days ago for £17.49+VAT. Great bit of kit & really good value.

The (non UK/Holland) Europe version was only around £7. Well cheap!
