Skipper ~ NOAA Marine Charts, ActiveCaptain, Nautical Weather, and Tides App Reviews

Being new to marine navigation, I was looking for an app that had it all. This is it!

Great functionality and elegant implementation.

Must have for every boater. Accurate and works great

Had a chance to use this app over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised. Great for my needs kayaking in and around the shores of Puerto Rico.

I paid the $3.99 for this app and got nothing in return. Cant get it to do much of anything.

A must have for anyone especially those who travel in unfamiliar waters.

Such a great app to have on the iPad. Takes me right to the spot on the chart. Great features, easy to use.

no idea how to get any sense out of this app, no instructions or help. no idea how to get it to find my current location. Where are the detailed charts and useful info. Im sure they must be somwhere but without instructions this is going in the delete bin. Plenty of easier to use apps available. On a boat you dont need to be figuring out in a storm how something is supposed to work

Much more value than others including garmin.

Most user friendly of all. Love it. Kayaking and sailing off the coast of Maine. Its been fabulous.

I am so impressed with this app! My husband and I make (mostly land-based) adventure films but we took to the water for our latest expedition: an 11-day, 111-mile thru-paddle from one end of the Florida Everglades to the other. This app proved essential for navigating some of the maze-like routes and hidden channels. It even led us safely to our destination when we were forced to paddle 15 miles in the middle of the night in order to avoid dangerous winds. There was virtually no reception out in the swamp but Skipper was completely reliable. I could map out routes at any time and track our paddling progress; so, in addition to its awesome navigational assistance, we have a useful, color-coded record of where we ventured. One particular feature that distinguished it from my husbands GPS was the ability to layer the marine charts and the NPS map with the backcountry campsites more clearly marked. We will definitely be using this again!

I cant cancel my subscription. They just keep charging 10 bucks every year with no way to cancel
