Very handy app

US maps only

GeorgGeorg2919 · 10 years ago · v3.0

You have to indicate clearly that you have maps for US only. I have found that there are no any maps at all for Mediterranean sea only after I bought a subscription.

Curious and Happy

I have a costal home but do not have a boat. I was curious about the surrounding sea areas and the nearby harbours and ports. Wow! Even the free version made me a fan and now Ill refer to it and show my boating friends!

Super navigation app

The ability to add any kind of chart from our already paid for charts from the government is awesome! Thanks!

Spot On App

Was right on par with the chart plotter for position and depth. Good stuff.

Map software doesnt always load the appropriate chart

Eherot · 12 years ago

E.g. When zooming in on Boston Harbor, it does not load the detail map of the inner harbor even when zoomed all the way in.
