I guess I'm old fashioned

I don't feel comfortable navigating by chartplotter alone. I view paper and digital as complimentary goods raqther than substitutes and always USE a paper chart while also using the plotter. This has a number of advantages: it allows me to keep a better track (as I mark on the chart the boat's progress/position) and allows for a better view of the 'big picture'.
