GPS software Pocket PC ??
 
Hello sailors!

Does anybody know a good software (freeware, shareware preferred) for a
Pocket PC with GPS for sailing-purposes?

All I want to see on my PDA is the current speed in knots (most GPS-tools
show the speed, but with a speedometer-scale up to 180 mph you can´t see if
you are going 5 or 10 knots...) and the tracking.
A MOB-function would also be great.
And at the end of the day I would like to some statistics, like sailed
distance, average speed and top-speed.

I use a Pocket-PC with Windows Mobile 5 with integrated GPS.

Please reply to

Thanks a lot and happy sailing,
Chris

I use Memory Map Navigator on my HP iPaq 5450. I also use a NavMan GPS
sleeve. I get about 2 hours of battery life before re-charging.
It uses just about any raster chart and has good features. Great for
anchoring at the end of the day, occasional position checks while under way
but not constant use unless you have a AC adapter and outlet.
It's a great program.

Do you try seaclear? Search on Google for this software.
You will only need the chart (KAP files in this case)
