Checked this out today, WOW for 10 £ (about $14) it is a great backup for the boat GPS!

Thanks

It's worth every penny!!! I love that ap. I use it as a back up to my back up on my boat (hence I rarely need on it) BUT have used it MANY times on other peoples boat(s). This thing is ***better*** than the inexpensive GPS plotters I have seen on some boats. (no kidding) There is still a few improvements they can make though.

A fun one around lady friends is .... the fireplace ap (like the guy in the Capt Morgan commercial "the best idea you every had!" I have Barry White as my music selection

The marine weather ap is great (use it multiple times a day)

I had "family map" that allowed me to keep real time track of my teenagers (in google earth) (but unfortunately, the lawyers got involved and now it tells them they are being tracked. This defeats the purpose and they turn off their phone if they don't want me to track them so I canceled the service.

sb.com needs an ap (I don't know what it should do through...maybe display real time fishing reports with GPS positions )
