SEAiq Pilot VPP is designed especially for use by river, channel, and harbor pilots. It includes support for displaying charts in the S-57, S-63, iENC, and BSB/KAP formats and use of external NMEA/AIS over WiFi.
IMPORTANT: you can try all the features in SEAiq Pilot VPP by downloading our other app, SEAiq Pilot, which is the same app but with a 7-day evaluation period. For non-pilots, we recommend SEAiq and SEAiq USA.
Features unique to SEAiq Pilot include:
* Support for official HO S-57/S-63 marine charts
* Adheres to IHO S-52 chart display standards
* Predicted vessel display (with ROT)
* Docking aids displaying distance/velocity to wharf fenders
* Vessel catalog
* Supports WiFi based AIS plugs and Portable Pilot Units
* NMEA/AIS record and playback
* Waypoints, routes, ETA, XTD, speed limits
* Route Meeting Point
* Visual CPA
* AIS "virtual boarding"
* Mariners tools: VRM, EBL, Mariners Notes, Clearing Lines
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
Cons: Menu has become hodgepodge. Clunky planning tool, especially if you are used to Rose Point.Pros: Developer is incredibly responsive and updates app frequently. Developer has added "Quick" and "Hide" options which really cleaned up menu. App is extremely useful for monitoring. Includes accurate ROT and meeting / OT info.7/17 update: I like it a lot more. Expect a learning curve, but worth it. I'm now really appreciating this app, especially for ROT turns and AIS meeting locations.
Difficult to use.

I've been using this app for about a year and it is spot on accurate. Has not crashed on me once. Very detailed nav program that I use for ship handling.
