			<description><![CDATA[Hi,  We just completed a trip and used Celestial.  I really like the product.  I would like to know if there is a way to export all might sights to a CSV file so that they can be shared easily in a celestial navigation class?<br />
Other than delete, I don't see an easy way to export the data.<br />
Optimally, export to text, csv, via email, or file.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

			<title><![CDATA[There&#039;s no reason to buy another guidebook...]]></title>
			<link>https://macsailing.net/mybb/thread-1077.html</link>

			<description><![CDATA[Navimatics Chart&amp;Tides+ for iPhone and iPad was approved by Apple and is now available in the App Store. It provides regions of seamless, quilted NOAA vector charts along with full offline support for ActiveCaptain's data. This is the first mobile software to include the full offline ActiveCaptain integration joining Coastal Explorer, MaxSea Time Zero, Furuno, and Nobeltec.  These partnerships along with the people accessing the free ActiveCaptain web site bring the number of boaters viewing this data to over 100,000.<br />
<br />
When used on an iPhone or iPad, it provides an incredible guidebook with marinas, anchorages, bridges, boat ramps, inlets, towing facilities, West Marine locations - thousands of boating-related points of interest.  All of the items reside locally on the iPhone/iPad.  No internet connection is required once the data is downloaded.  When an internet connection is available, one tap of the Update button will synchronize the offline data with the ActiveCaptain servers providing the latest information and reviews for all of the items that changed.<br />
<br />
Since the release of the Hazard marker some 6 months ago, up-to-the-minute reports on shoaling, wrecks, obstructions, and other dangerous areas along with many Local Notice to Mariners items are immediately visible in the location where care should be taken.  Having all of the hazards instantly accessible like this is reason enough for every boater to carry this product with them.<br />
<br />
A single Charts&amp;Tides+ license will run on both an iPhone and iPad at the same time.  When run on the iPad, full HD resolution is used to create a very nice sized chartplotter.  The internal GPS is used to plot your position in a moving map display, optionally rotating the chart as your boat turns so you can always see the next set of markers coming your way.<br />
<br />
The Apple App Store has Charts&amp;Tides+ available for &#36;19.99 in three versions - East Coast, Gulf Coast, and West Coast.  Each region has large overlap areas.  The East Coast covers from Maine to the Keys and the entire west coast of Florida.  The Gulf Coast covers the entire state of Florida to Texas.  The West Coast covers the entire west coast, Alaska, and Hawaii.  A Great Lakes region is under development and awaiting approval.<br />
<br />
So for about half the price of a single guidebook covering a smaller area, why would anyone purchase a guidebook any longer?  Why get a paper document that is out of date the moment it's printed?  Why not have  fuel, slip, electric, and other prices available and current with the tap of an Update button?  Access many thousands of anchorages not listed in any guidebook along with reviews from people who have dropped the hook there.  And of course, reviews of marinas - tens of thousands - both positive and negative from people with the real experience who were there.<br />
<br />
And this is just the beginning.  There is so much more coming that will greatly enhance the enjoyment and safety of using a boat by taking advantage of these capabilities.  Check out Navimatics Charts&amp;Tides+ in the App Store.  You'll see that there is just no reason to waste money on paper guidebooks any longer.<br />
