San Francisco Bay sailing / gps

Confused

Ross: A little confused on the concept. Are you saying the charts on the GPS are different than paper charts? if not, then what's the difference in where you may be at any given time related to the bottom?

Re: Confused

Got no charts on my GPS. My question was, "without GPS would you give hazards a wider berth?"

 

[Stu Jackson]

Ahhh

OK, now I get it. No, because I'd know where I was in either option, so, like my question said, what difference would it make?

There are a couple low-cost iPhone GPS apps for San Francisco sailors that could be a good start too. Try SailTimer for iPhone from http://www.IndepthNavigation.com . Or, www.iNavX.com which is from www.MacENC.com
