Horrible Mapping Software, Skip This

Based on our own experience, we would not recommend this mapping software for marine navigation. The charts were outdated and contained numerous errors. The only positive aspect was the user interface, which was easy to use. Unfortunately, that doesn't make up for the inaccurate data. Save yourself the headache and look for a different option.

Pros
  • Provides high-quality nautical charts for Puget Sound.
Cons
  • Does not include charts for other areas.

I purchased a platinum chip to use the auto trace feature in a device that came with regular Navionics charts. The Platinum setting messes up the normal fringe charts.

Put your original Navionics chip back in the plotter! As for…

Pros
  • Marine electronics
Cons
  • Requires power outlet
