oeSENC charts compatible with Expedition?

If I order oeSENC charts for OpenCPN from o-charts.org, will I be able to use them with Expedtition? Or are they encrypted different fron ENC charts?

Yes, it looks as if they are S-63 encrypted ENCs in converted to a format specifically for OpenCPN.

I saw this on the web site

"Different from S-63 or genuine S-57 charts (US), these are not “Official Charts” or “ENCs” in the context of “carriage requirements”, as they are not issued nor certified by official bodies."

You can get ENCs from various providers. We use AusENCs a lot in Australia for example. ChartWorld seems to be one of the more cost-effective solutions with global coverage.

Thanks ENCs for Sweden seams very hard to find at a ”normal cost” my racing area alone is well over USD 1.000 the OpenCPN was USD 50 for a much greater area. But I’ll keep looking, for now I have the C-map charts, slow but okay.
