2016 Waggoner Cruising Guide

Downloaded the guide to my tablet. Couch cruising and making plans for our inside passage trip in May. Gene has been working on Reefmadness. 2k watt inverter installed. New circuit panel and additional outlets. Cant wait!
 
My Android Nexus tablet has always downloaded the annual Waggoner Cruising Guide with ease, until this year. The 2016 guide downloads to 17% and then stops and actually counts back down to 0%. Is anyone else having a problem?

Rob, I've had this same problem trying to download large files on my iPad. I just download larger files on my laptop, then transfer them to my iPad via itunes. Even the Wagoneer website talks of it being a rather large file and many smaller devices may have problems downloading. Colby
 
I have a Dropbox basic/free account. I used my laptop to download the guide and put it in a private Dropbox folder. Now, I can download it from Dropbox on any of my devices. If you have trouble downloading directly to a device, this workaround might help.
 
As I wrote previously, when I have tried to download the 2016 guide my Android tablet downloads up to 17% and then counts back down to 0%. It then does this all over again. I have never seen this occur before and thought I would be out of luck. I've heard a few of you have encountered this similar problem.

Well, yesterday I tried the download again with the same initial result but this time I just let the download run. Up/down, up/down, etc.... and after watching several of these attempts the 2016 guide suddenly opened. It appears in my download log that perhaps each attempt the machine received a portion of the guide and eventually pieced it all together. This is simply uneducated speculation on my part, but to those of you who might have encountered this same glitch - try the download again and just let the process run... I now have the complete guide.
