Chris, I noted in this vid you mentioned your process of initially planning on Navionics boating app then transposing this onto paper - really good idea I think. I don't see however in Boating app after plotting a course, a detailed turn for turn written list. Is this something you just interpret when writing down or am I missing something in Navionics app. I just tried some other apps to see if any do a better job of this, and found Savvy Navvy does a pretty good job. I may just subscribe to that as well, but really prefer Navionics as have spent time to learn that.
ОтветитьIf you told Navionics a departure time, would it give your course to steer, timings, depths etc?
Ответитьgreat vid Chris. Jim Rodgers
ОтветитьExcelent and very profesional!!
Ответитьyou are a really good teacher and explain things really well. I would like to know more about the very very simple things with navionics such as the blue and red tidal arrows. I am assuming the red is indicating an ebb tide and blue a flood tide? How do you delete or correct a prepared passage plan on navionics? I can navigate with paper charts and use Reeds etc...but as an old age pensioner and newcomer with electronics it can ages to work out where and how to click to get something simple!!!! Help 😊
ОтветитьNice video and wrll explained. Happy and safe sailing!
ОтветитьGreat captain. I would feel safe traveling with you mate. Nice video thank you.
Ответитьgreat video thanks
ОтветитьHaving spent the winter doing a day skipper theory and only ever done 5 days in any kind of boat (on a competent crew), this is just great for ideas on how all that 'indoor classroom RYA sailing around an imaginary world' can then be applied to real world situations with a technology supplement. Just the job for moving the mind on from classroom theory to real life wet places. Thanks 🙂
ОтветитьVery, very helpful. Thank you.
ОтветитьExcellent info
ОтветитьI m happy for you ,congratulations with Avionics ,very important to have its easy to navigate. Greetings from the garden island Kauai, Hawaii.
ОтветитьVery nice planning tutorial. Well done Chris.
ОтветитьThanks very much, useful vid.
ОтветитьReally useful! Thanks!
ОтветитьVery helpful. Thanks
ОтветитьSuch a useful video! Nice job and it was really helpful as I am planning to passage from Lelystad in Netherlands to Aarhus in Denmark! Thanks a lot for sharing! 🤙😀
ОтветитьGame changer for me this video
ОтветитьReally great video, really helped using Navionics👍👍
ОтветитьI think my Raymarine Axiom plotter uses Navionics, or it may be just Navionics charts.
I have heard folk singing the virtues of Navionics on several forums but never seen it in action, worth another look methinks.
Thanks for the heads up.
My passage planning is very similar up and down the various sounds (Jura, Mull etc.) in my local patch, set off when the tide i fair, park when it goes foul, seemples.
Very helpful. More of the passage planning would be great.
ОтветитьHow do you plot on harbor charts. The smaller scales are easy the large scale I have problems with.
ОтветитьBrilliant video, would love to see the English Channel passage planning, whether you used an overall or hourly method for adjusting for those changing cross currents.
ОтветитьGreat info! Well done sir.
ОтветитьJust found your channel. As a new sailor and boat owner myself this was very informative. Thanks. Fair winds. 😀
ОтветитьDo you rely on hotspot wifi connectivity or satellite? What was the make of the doofer you showed at the start for wifi connectivity? Great video BTW very helpful
ОтветитьGreat video Chris, Quick question. If you have to revert to paper and get to a point where you need to change course (eg sail 247 True), how do you ensure that COG is 247 True rather than just your heading (eg how do you take into account tidal stream and leeway). Thanks....
ОтветитьWatched this video with great interest. I am new to this and really liked the idea of planning ahead. As we are in Australia, and not likely to sail our boat to the English Channel, the points outlined in this video were really helpful. Thank you
ОтветитьVery good video. I navigate in exactly the same way, but I did learn someting new: putting the tablet in flight mode to save energy. Thank you !
ОтветитьYes please to more like this. People don't talk about this stuff!
ОтветитьYou shouldn’t b sailing at traveling during the corona virus quarantine.
ОтветитьBeen playing with navionics. Planning routes etc but struggling to find the place where you set departure time and date. Any suggestions?
ОтветитьAnother great video Chris, always waiting for the next one. really like the way you explain in a way that doesn't use jargon like some other channels do. fair winds my friend, stay safe.
ОтветитьThat was good stuff, good explanation about how and when and ifs. Do not forget to mention that you prepare food in advance. Like soup or tea and some buns. It is always happy to have those things at hand. Look after your clothes and other wears. But if you can make a video about crossing the Chanel it would be nice. Enjoy your trips I will follow them.
ОтветитьHi Chris, top video as always, a couple of questions if I may?
1. If you have a printer onboard could you not print your electronic route/waypoints including the breakdown of estimated times between stops, and maybe add a few notes to that, rather than handwriting the whole lot again?
2.Using an older almanac (tide tables) how would you transpose the correct (or nearest) corresponding date to use? I'm guessing it might be based on the nearest full or new moon? or do you only use the tidal flow charts?
Loved this insight Chris, the way you explain things is super simple, even to a total novice like myself. I have the utmost admiration for you sailing single handed in the way you do .......respect to you fella, keep up the awesome vids 👌👍
ОтветитьVery informative
ОтветитьVery usefull Chris, please do do more like this, especialy on the cannal crossing. Fair wind & follwing sea.
Ответить(Baz) That was very informative Chris, thank you.
ОтветитьA fantastic real-world explanation of the crossover between tech and practicalities. Thank you. I learned a lot.
ОтветитьGreat video Chris, thank you for sharing your tips. I see you use the Samsung tablet a lot in your videos and it works well with Navionics too, I shall look to purchase one. As I'm based on the River Medway, make your way across the channel, keep up the good work.
Regards Paul.
As much as i agree with 90% of your plan, if you use all electrics in a fog, your visual navigation is next to useless, this is where a paper chart is recommended, also if you plot on a paper chart it acts as a legal document in an insurance claim.
ОтветитьGreat video Chris, really enjoyed it.
ОтветитьChris, do you use a logbook as well to you Travel planning Book? Witch is a smart idea and i would like to Steel it🧐😜if you dont mind
ОтветитьThanks! Nice video! Looking forward to your view on TSS crossings, because that’s one thing I haven’t done yet. Cheers!
ОтветитьExcellent again Chris.
ОтветитьHope they reopen borders soon so you can get to your boat again. I was there last week to do some work. All is fine
ОтветитьVery useful, as novice salts that have been using both Navionics & charts, your tips will make our passage planning better.
Definitely interested in the cross channel passage plan.
Thank you for sharing
