That stinks. Being compatible with active captain is what made me go with Garmin. I have it on my iPhone but can't get it on my 740. So is home port free for the PC? Can we set up a route an transfer it to the 740?
David, you can import routes to your Garmin 740 using any program that creates routes in the GPX format, including routes created on the ActiveCapt website. Many nav programs will convert to GPX. You save the routes to a SD card, place the SD card into your 740 and upload it. IMHO the Garmin homeport PC nav program is worth the money. It has the best route editing features of any nav program I've used.
