Do you prefer to use paper charts, rather
than rely on a electronic charts?
Are you proud of your navigation skills and
do not want to stop making use of them?
The Outline Passage Planner was designed
just for you. You continue to navigate just as
before, using your favourite charts, but now
have a powerful assistant to handle all the
routine look-up and calculations.
You can continue to work it all out for
yourself, then cross-check with the answer
on the PC, or use the program as first
resource, and apply your skills to checking
you made no mistake in entering any
figures or positions.
For any date and time, the tidal steams are
displayed on a coastal outline chart. You
can step through time, half an hour at a time
The real bonus comes when you enter a
simple leg, or a route, and the PC will then
calculate the course to steer, allowing for
wind and tide, plus showing the optimum
departure time for any trip.
You are in command, the PC is your tool.
