Gulf Stream Image

Is there a way to download an accurate image of the gulfstream and overlay the the chart?

1. Whats the best source for the latest imagery?
2. How do I make it overlay my ENC or C-Map chart?

TIA

One easy way: just like a WX grib

WX Data Tab > Saildocs > RTOFS

Then play around with Weather > Settings > Current    start with Colour red, solid, solid arrows

Pretty easy to get the display you want.

Good Luck on the 17th !

Re: Gulf Stream Image

Thanks Ernie, I was hoping for an infrared style image. We use the RTOFS quite a lot and it is very handy.

Re: Gulf Stream Image

Bill,Lots of images you find on the web have Lat Long so you can down load as an 'image' and geo-reference them

Re: Gulf Stream Image

You can right click (on the chart near where you want to see the image) > my image then download the gulf stream. 

To get it to display:
Right click > open image
