Does the depth information come from a sonar reading or charts? In the past I have used some of Maptechs products. Next weekend I hope to test some mac software using a p2140 and a mac mini.
Are you using the Google ocean component? I would imagine the 30 meter resolution isn't enough to tell you much.
Hibernate sounds like a good option for when we will be using the boat on many consecutive days. For extended times of not using it, I guess shutting down would be the way to go.
I have depth plotted on the raster charts, but also get real-time depth through the depthfinder. It would be nice to plot these experimental depths and overlay them on the charts that have previous depths on them. I have asked earthnc about using the google ocean component and to accentuate the depth resolution for the bays. West Galveston bay is about 8 ft max depth and a few inchis in many spots. That would be a nice addition to change the resolution of the depth reading ... like you said, the current resolution is for oceans and such, not shallow bays.
