 #Summary

After adding new ARCS/Seafarer (skipper) charts my old charts are lost. 

#Problem
New chart updates have been added to old charts without a new permit.

 #Solution.
You will need to re-load all of your ARCS charts in date order.  To do this you must complete the following:- 
Open “windows explorer” locate the “Arcs” folder.  This is found in the “Charts” folder, which will be in the route of your
C:\ drive. (If defaults have been used in the original installation of seaPro)    i.e. C:\Charts\Arcs

Select the contents of the “Arcs” folder and delete everything.  Leaving an empty Arcs folder.
Open seaPro, select “Install chart…” from the “Chart” menu.
Select “ARCS”, then “Next”.
Follow the installer.  Installing your oldest charts first and working forwards to your latest charts and updates.
IMPORTANT! When you are given an option to install “all charts” you should change this to “new or updated charts”, this will ensure that each chart installation will relate to the relevant permits and updates.  Do this for all chart installations.


Always keep your original ARCS Skipper CDROMS/ permit disks safe they cannot be replaced
