NavPak Pro
Electronic navigation software
NavPak Pro is a package with remarkable features at a very reasonable price. Initially developed during a seven-year circumnavigation, it is the least expensive program on the market to offer autopilot and ARPA radar interfaces. It is compatible with commercially available digital charts, and USGS Topographical maps, or scan your own charts and maps. NavPak Pro uploads and downloads waypoints from popular GPS receivers and scrolls and loads electronic charts automatically. It is compatible with virtually all GPS units and other instruments that send NMEA-compatible data. When interfaced to speed and compass instruments, it will calculate current set and drift. It also comes with a program that makes it easy for you to scan and calibrate your own charts. In addition to more "newfangled" electronic navigation capability, NavPak Pro offers traditional navigation tools - celestial sight reduction and plotting, star and planet finder, line relative and great circle drawing, bearing plotting, advance LOP, distance measuring, and a time-speed-distance calculator. It will let you draw and save a detailed plotting sheet as a graphic log, or save your boat's track to disk. Take it with you anywhere you need electronic mapping! Originally designed for marine navigation, NavPak Pro is also being used for aeronautical navigation, off road navigation, oceanographic research, and surveying. Want to give it a spin?

Here's what people are saying about NavPak Pro: - Alan Paul Beck, Business Development Manager, Strarch International Limited
I have been using NavPak for more than five years in the waters of the Arabian (Persian) Gulf and around the north of New Zealand. I really like the simple, clear layout, size and ease of use compared to other similar but more costly products. NavPak does everything I expect or need from a navigation package.

I wish to inform you of the fantastic performance of your Navigation program in our 2700 mile dash across the Atlantic in 18.5 days. We have enjoyed the use of NavPak & my GPS. We landed safely SE of Martinique spot on with our computer screen , to the admiration of the British crew ....

I have intensively used NavPak with plenty of satisfaction. It has been a permanent help. NavPak helped me once to immediately discover that we were at serious risk. The misinterpretation of lights by an inexperienced shift while I was having a short sleep, put us in a very dangerous situation. He woke me up saying he couldn't spot one cardinal light. A quick look to the screen showed me our position. We where south of a North cardinal mark and north of the South cardinal mark, just 30 metres away from submerged rocks!. We immediatelly headed off of that place with no other consequence than a beating heart. If I should have had to read the GPS and look for our position on the paper map it would have taken me enough time to hit the rock.
- Excerpt from "New and Noteworthy", by Blue Water Sailing magazine, September 2000
NavPak Pro is more than a chart reading program. It is a full service navigation tool... to transform the nav table into a digital command center. NavPak Pro stacks up very well against the others in the fleet, and once you get the hang of the programs logical flow and command structure, you can really make it fly. ... NavPak Pro is also a real bargain.
- Excerpt from "Special Section: Electronic Charts", by Ben Ellison, Ocean Navigator Magazine, Sep/Oct 1999.
NavPak...does basic, solid electronic charting at a modest cost and on modest hardware if necessary. Only seaPro 2000 and NavPak offer facilities that attach notations securely to a chart; in every other program, it is too easy to turn off an important mark accidentally. ...fastest on minimal hardware configurations. -
