Octopus | Win tablet | Adrena cannot be directly installed on this type of tablets, however their use is frequent in navigation as duplicated screen.
In the same way as CPU repeaters, an iPad or Android tablet can reproduce from the cockpit the screen of the PC let on the chart table on which Adrena is running. Directly linked via WiFi, the PC and the tablet communicate thanks to an application like Splashtop or VNC. Watch the video explaining how it works. |

With the SailProof SP08, you’re immediately at the top of the game when it comes to navigation tablets. For the positioning system, it has everything we wanted from such a tablet: GPS, Glonass and Galileo. The battery is overpowering with 9800 mAh. The SP08 offers Wifi as well as LTE. And with its 1000 cd/m² – I don’t think I’ve seen more than that on the market – reading navigation maps in full sunlight is absolutely no problem at all. The SP08 is a monster of robustness: it is rugged, IP67 and MIL-STD-810G (military specification). So there’s no need to look for a waterproof case, it’s already equipped with one.
Excellence has of course a price, and a weight. The SailProof is indeed above other Android tablets in terms of price, but it outperforms all others in terms of performance. As for the weight, let’s not forget that the weight displayed takes into account the rugged case, unlike other tablets that only displays the weight of the tablet itself. And to be honest, we won’t go jogging with the SailProof in our pocket, so 400 grams or 700 grams on the tablet support at the helm doesn’t change anything.
In collaboration with SailProof, we’re glad to offer you a discount. By clicking on the link above, the SailProof SP08 tablet will be available for $827 instead of $875, which is quite nice with the promo code SAILKERGUELEN !
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e is an alternative option in terms of navigation tablets. If you’re following us for a while, you know that our first tablet was in fact its little sister, the Galaxy Tab S3.
Compared to the Galaxy Tab S3, the S5e has a pretty crazy resolution, an even bigger battery (7040 mAh! ) and even more power with its Octo-Core processor.
Our first criterion was the fact that it is powered by Android, which leaves us more room to install some navigation softwares (OpenCPN, Sailgrib, …) and memory expansion via SD/microSD cards. On the smartphone side, we have a Pixel 2 and a Pixel 3, which means that all our eco-system is under Android for easy synchronization, and as a bonus, less cables because everything is in USB-C!
And our main criterion obviously, the positioning system: we have GPS, GLONASS, Beidou but especially Galileo.
