Recommended Boating Apps...

• Navionics – Please do yourself a favor and purchase the Navionics app for your iPhone or Android device! Buying maps that cover the U.S. & Canada costs $14.99 and is well worth it. This can act as a backup navigation device (charts are as good as the chartplotter), and it has several terrific planning functions including tide tables and current information. http://www.navionics.com/mobile-pc-app

• Anchor Alarm - This is a must for spending the night on the hook! It will alarm if the boat drifts beyond your set limit.
