Jeppesen’s PC-Planner is a popular computer voyage-planning tool for sailors, power cruisers and saltwater anglers. Boaters can plan all the navigational aspects of future cruising vacations or fishing trips. Navigators can load and view their familiar C-MAP by Jeppesen charts on their home or office PC, creating and editing marks and routes just as they would on their SI-TEX chart plotter. With the optional available user memory card, boaters can easily transfer saved navigation plans right to their onboard chart plotter.
PC-Planner also lets boaters utilize their MAX charts and computer to view embedded aerial photos of inlets and harbors they plan to visit, check out marina facilities and layouts and even check tide and current predictions for safer and more efficient cruising.
SI-TEX’s newest EC Series chart plotters offer three new models — the EC-5, EC-7 and EC-11 — to accommodate boats of all sizes and styles. These advanced navigation systems offer powerful internal processors for seamless presentation of rich MAX chart content, high-definition color LCD displays, professional-grade navigation features and IP67 waterproof construction. Together with Jeppesen’s PC-Planner home computer planning tool, the EC-Series makes a powerful integrated navigation system for sailors, powerboaters and fishermen. Getting the PC-Planner at no cost during this limited-time promotion makes the deal that much sweeter.
