Cruising Sailors Forum Archive

On my Android....

tablet, I have downloaded it and set it up along side the Plan2Nav app. But, like others, I have not used them on the water YET. Next month we hope to drop in around New Orleans. We have NOT cruised that area yet, so will give it a good workout.

I have also downloaded AND used "AvtiveCaptain", "Tides & Currents", PocketGrib Lite, and "Sailsafe". I used these around the San Francisco Bay and Delta area. They were very good!

I am happy that the Plan2Nav app includes Active Captain in it.

I was just shocked that the C-Map chart chip I just bought for my Standard Horizon Chart plotter was around $160.00, BUT the same charts (downloaded from the same company, Jeppeson) for my Android was about $30.00! I am NOT willing to give up my paper charts, OR chart plotter, but it sure is looking nice for backup stuff!
