Insanely huge download for mediocre data. Someone needs to work on downsizing your images you use. On top of he $59 price tag the app includes advertising. The routes and times of year are nice, but that is about all I found useful. Soggypaws website has pdfs with a lot of South Pacific cruising info. While in French Polynesia do not expect to get updates of 1Gb.. was bad at 500mb, but this latest update almost doubled the size download.
Tides stopped working in latest release
Brentm
The tides no longer work as of the latest release,
Updated for iPadOS26. Now works in Portrait as well as Landscape orientation (although for the best result, Landscape is often a better experience).
Lots of under-the-hood improvements.
