Sir Robin Knox-Johnston, Clipper 05-06

The highly acclaimed seaPro standard is a unique electronic charting application designed to offer seamless selection of bothvector (Livechart & S57) and raster (ARCS,Seafarer,NZ Mariner, BSB4, BSB & PCX charts).

Multiple Chart Windows Polar Diagrams Plan and monitor your passage in different windows atdifferent levels of zoom. Alternatively monitor your position inone window while planning your passage in another. Performance characteristics of the yacht can be entered andupdated.This is displayed graphically as a polar diagram whichenables you to determine the maximum boat speed acheivablefor a given wind speed and wind angle. Managing Routes Unlimited routes and waypoints may be stored.These can beedited,reversed,appended and up/downloaded to a GPS. Weather Routing For sailing yachts, planning is made even easier. Usinginformation on your yachts sailing performance (polardiagram), tidal data and predicted wind (from a GRIB weatherfile or manually entered) seaPro will calculate the best routeeither between two points or from your route, adding tackingpoints as required making best Tidal Passage Planning Using tidal data from official sources,where available,seaProwill calculate passage time,expected ground track,course tosteer and best departure time. You can also enter your owntidal data. use of wind and tide. If youhave more than one sail plan you even get suggestions when to change sails. Tidal Curves The tidal curve function enables the display of tidal heights forports where SHM data is available (including secondary ports).A world-wide tidal curve database is available as an option. AIS Display and Logging Full support for AIS receivers (including AI3000). seaPro willLog and display AIS targets on your screen and give you avisual and audible warning for any potential collision(CPA/TCPA). Tidal Streams Where available,visual tidal vectors can also be displayed onthe chart. 3D Display Weather Data 3d display takes standard Livecharts and S57 data and dynamicallyconverts them to 3D images with real-time tidal seaPro can overlay dynamic GRIB weather information(downloadable from various third party sources on the Internet).Display animated weather patterns (typically 3-5 day forecasts) onyour chart,including wind speed/direction,wave height/direction, barometric pressure,sea temperature, rain etc. heights, flashing lights, AIS, ARPA radar and view from your vessel. Marine autopilot Control seaPro will drive an autopilot that has NMEA0183compatibility. Instrument Panel Interfaced to your instruments via NMEA0183,seaPro will display this information in the repeater panel (position, log, wind speed & direction,heading & temperature). Position & Track Logging GPS data is automatically written to the log atpredetermined intervals and can be replayed orreviewed at a later date. Drop different 'markerflags’ to indicate ‘man overboard’ or points ofinterest into the log with a single press of a button. Chart Overlays Add your own marks,lines,areas and text to yourcharts with the overlay facility.Great for markingout your favourite fishing,anchoring or diving spots.
