Thousands of yachtsmen have chosen PC Plotter because of its ease of use, renowned technical support and free upgrade policy.
This new upgrade gives a friendlier interface, faster chart drawing and new AIS FAIR Technology which gives faster vessel information updates.
The PC Plotter programme has been written with the aim of giving fast effeicient processing and can be used on PCs having only 400MHz of processing speed and 250Mb RAM.
PC Plotter was developed ten years ago to provide a robust and simple to use navigation system for use at sea. It was an immediate success and over the years has been steadily refined and developed. PC Plotter uses Navionics Vector Cartography which has layers of information that can be turned on or off - zoom out to plot your course across the channel - zoom in for detail of the approach to your destination. Coupled with a GPS antenna PC plotter can show the position of your boat, course and track. PC Plotter has a myriad of features including:
• can be used on several PCs enabling easy planning at home and use on your boat • can link to any NMEA device such as radar, GPS or autohelm • entry of courses etc by mouse or touchscreen • continuous display of position, track, planned route and predicted course • calculation of optimum time for departure based on inbuilt Navionics tidal data • shows course to steer for each leg • includes tidal height fall/rise indicator at various points • can show time to next high or low tide • has alarms for loss of GPS, depth etc • logs data for viewing or printing • waypointa can be grouped in libraries

The Neptune Navigation Passage Planner - Introductory Offer!
We have used the Neptune Navigation Passage Planner for many years and have found it to be a quick method of assessing routes and determining optimum passage and departure times. A typical application would be the consideration of a route from Cherbourg to the Solent using either the Eastern or Western routes based on tide and wind conditions. In addition to passgae and optimum departure times the programme also indicates the course to steer for each leg and displays the COG (when the PC is connected to a suitable GPS antenna).
The Outline Planner includes the basic programme and one charted area.
Outline Planner This remarkably easy to use software perform course and optimised departure calculations, displaying tidal streams, and reference port tides. The program interface to the GPS’s so and Yeoman plotters. After a calculation the results are readily available on screen and for single legs the vector plot construction is shown so that navigators can cross check their chartwork. Neptune automatically takes into account the effects of tides using its in built tidal data.
If you are interested in the effects of wind Neptune Planner allows you to overlay wind direction onto passage plans making it instantly visible if a plan can be sailed for the prevailing conditions. For those interested in boat performance then Polar Plots and boat speed estimation routines for the wind conditions are built into the software. The programs output is easily copied to the clipboard for pasting into the passage plan for SOLAS purposes.
Connected to a GPS the programs will act as a plotter and at the same time allow you some very flexible waypoint management between PC and GPS. If you do not connect a GPS to the PC you can plot in manual mode. Waypoint files can be created either by typing in the co-ordinates and names or by simply pointing and clicking with your mouse, you can keep & edit many waypoint files on your PC and call them up at the click of a mouse. Routes can be edited on screen and will show your no sail area.
Once a leg has been set-up you can use the tide roll function to see the effects of different departure times on the course to steer and the effects of course over ground. Also the program allows the navigator to view the tidal conditions at each hour of the journey.
You can plan into the future or re-visit last years calculations as you wish. There are many features that can be explored. The program are not time limited, and so no yearly updates are required.
Included with the programs are demonstration areas, Neptune Planner using outline charts includes the English Channel Central Part.
Neptune Planner using outline charts can additionally export its data to Maptech software.
A very versatile, easy to use program, full of great features, calculations and a pleasure to use.
