It is a simple matter of either showing all the waypoints you already have in iNavX ("settings" > toggle on/off on top of screen), and tapping on them to make up a new route, or creating new waypoints by tapping on the chart and selecting the "waypoint" button. Adding new routes took a bit of learning, but not too bad once you get the hang of it. I had previously downloaded the charts I would need from NOAA. (This app was designed to display many different chart formats).

I was able to download Navionics and Canadian raster charts. This was done through X-Traverse, an online supplier iNavX uses to move docs and charts back and forth. First things The first thing I did was download all the charts I would need. The various charts display superbly on the bright sharp screen.

Rich had taken full advantage of the added space that the iPad offers with a "Compass Banner"/ "Instrument Banner" on the top and a "Tab" menu bar on the bottom. Rich wasn't far behind and a couple of days later I had the first beta for the iPad. I personally met the FedEx lady and received the package. Finally delivery day for the new iPad was upon us. Unlike some other developers, he decided to keep this application a "universal app", which means it will run on the iPad, iPod Touch or the iPhone. As the six weeks of waiting spiraled down, Rich was very busy working on the new application. I knew that iNavX would scale perfectly to the iPad, and that was Rich's full intention. I have been a Beta tester for him since the early days of GPSNavX, MacENC and iNavX.

Not only did I know this, but developer of iNavX marine software for the iPhone, Rich Ray also knew this to be a fact. When Apple made the first announcement, I knew that this could be a solution to navigation on boats. The big present was the new 64GB iPad 3G. Warning: If you read the following, you may soon find yourself at the Apple Store typing in your credit card number.I haven't been this excited since since I was a kid waiting for Christmas. To say that he's enthusiastic about how developer Rich Ray's software runs on an iPad is an understatement! Tom has been sailing and messing with boat technology for thirty years, and currently runs an marine electronics and electrical shop somewhere in the Pacific Northwest. So I'm pleased to publish the following excerpt from a review by Tom MacNeil, a long time beta tester for the GPSNavX/ MacENC/iNavX family of charting programs.
