New addition for MEMBERS only: Seamless VisiCharts with variable transparency. Perfect for planning..
Now seamless..all UK, Ireland, Belgium,
Netherlands, Spain and Portugal waters.
Anyone who has entered a new harbour, river, bay or anchorage
using normal charts will know the problems. You study the chart
and try to get a picture in your head of what you are going into.
The trouble is, reality often does not match that
mental picture ...perhaps you're picturing a narrow
stream of navigable water (as shown on the chart), and
you're met with a huge watery expanse... Now WHERE IS that
buoyage ??
Maybe everything looks spacious on the chart, but as you nose in
you realise it's a tiny little place with no room to turn,
and cluttered up with moored boats....you've misjudged the
scale of the place. Or possibly you have not realised the size and
frequency of the shipping using an approach channel and
harbour...you could have an unpleasant surprise waiting.
You're snugly anchored somewhere and simply wondering if
it's worth the effort to go ashore... will there be
anything there nearby or is it deserted ?
At last there is now a way to truly see exactly
what you are taking your boat into , as VisiCharts combine
the power of Google Earthtm satellite imagery and
charts combined.
The combination composite image gives you the ability to truly
visualise where you are going, and see what you are likely to find
once you arrive, afloat and ashore.
