Most navigation lecturers, RYA tutors etc will tell you that the PDA. GPS or whatever should be used as an aid to navigation, not t'other way around.

Sorry I guess my grammer is not too good, what I meant to say was can anybody recomend software for my PDA as a backup should have read ( to my paper charts) what else would they be backing up.

I used Maptech charts on my PDA phone, but you need to purchase both the marine charts (which have bundled basic Chartplotter software) and separate map/software bundle allowing for transfer from PC to PDA. I think some have successfully used Ozi Explorer, which is shareware.

Maptech charts & Memory Map software, full UK & Ireland charts now £95, software £35 to run them on a PDA. A bit basic but handy if you already have the PDA.

I posted recently about free PDA software to help the navigation process, but to be used togeter with paper charts.
