Easy to use
Full-colour interface and high quality graphics provide clear
and easy to understand information.
Route/voyage plan logbook
Enter waypoints with a click of the mouse, save it and then load
the route into your voyage plan table, along with ETD and average
speed. The ETA is then calculated at each waypoint, even taking
into account the effects of tidal currents.
Zoom in with no loss of clarity
Vectorised charts allow 50 levels of zooming from 1:200,000,000
to just 1:1,000. Text and symbols automatically self-adjust, providing
instant high-resolution colour clarity.
Personalise your charts
Add symbols, lines, text and dangers etc. to form your own navigational
plan or record chart observations, anchorage, shipwrecks or even
favoured fishing spots.
Multiple layers of information to customise your display
Vector Charts (layered information) mean you can view or hide
layers of information instantly - making it as complex or uncluttered
as you wish.
Screen adjustable for day/night/twilight/dusk display
The screen adjustment facility is designed to optimise viewing
quality in varying lighting conditions.
Instrument side panel
The side panel is used to display a range of information from
your instruments and to give details of your route. It also allows
access to other functions and set up options.
