What is NavLink UK? NavLink is a Mac app that turns your device into a full-function chart plotter for boating trips. It uses digital vector charts derived from the latest UKHO data covering the whole of the UK and Ireland. The app can be used as the primary electronic charting system on the boat or as the perfect backup system to an existing dedicated chart plotter. It includes all UK and Ireland charts, and buoys, lights, etc. are tappable with bearing and distance. The app offers seamless fast panning and zooming across charts, route planning and tracking with waypoints, SOG, COG, ETA, etc. It also provides live AIS ship overlay with CPA and TCPA alarms, and charts work offline.
1. NavLink lets you plan your routes and waypoints at home and once at sea, the app’s Sailing HUD gives you all of the navigation data you need including; Position, Course and Speed over ground (COG+SOG), Vector Made Good (VMG), Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA), Distance and bearing to next Waypoint and an alert when you reach the waypoint and NavLink auto-routes to the next one.
