No you don't - you can download from Free Boating Charts save them in C:\Program Files\SeaClear\CHARTS,
then run MapCal II, go to Tools, Autoload list, Scan for new charts, and that's it. No calibration necessary.

I just downloaded Lake St. Clair yesterday, and it has the U.S. & Canadian sides, just like the chart book. I haven't used it on the boat yet, but in the car it tracked me down to the marina.

The only thing I don't like so far, is there's no way to get to the Zoom menu without right-clicking, which I can't do on my touchscreen. I may gut a mouse to get the scroll wheel and mount it next to the screen.
