Global chart maker NV Charts is adding a new, dynamic dimension to their digital chart products and mobile NV App, and it\u2019s all free.<\/p>\n
Cruisers who download the free NV Charts US App (with American flag on icon) for navigating with their tablets and mobile devices from the Apple or Google App store\u00a0will also be able to download NV Chart\u2019s entire U.S. East Coast digital chart sets for\u00a0free, from Maine and the Canadian Border to the southernmost tip of Florida at Key West.<\/p>\n
In addition, NV Charts has teamed up with the Atlantic Cruising Club (ACC), an independent, boater-biased publishing company known for its comprehensive Guides to Marinas.\u00a0 ACC\u2019s Guides provide extensive, independent, objective, researched information on marinas and their surrounding areas.<\/p>\n
A very useful subset of ACC\u2019s information will be embedded in every free US East Coast NV Chart, according to NV Chart\u2019s president and CEO, Hasko Scheidt.<\/p>\n
\u201cThanks to our partnership with ACC, up to 40 items of information about area marinas will be available to chart users when they check out a harbor or anchorage on their mobile device using our NV charts and App,\u201d Hasko says. \u201cNo Internet connection is required; information from ACC\u2019s Guides is embedded in the digital chart and will always be available at the navigator\u2019s fingertips. And if a boater is in a harbor with an Internet connection, he or she can directly access even more information from the ACC website (www.AtlanticCruisingClub.com<\/a>) through embedded links in the charts.\u201d<\/p>\n
