Fishfinder Chartplotter
I want to buy a gps/fishfinder for my boat, but what is a chartplotter? Do I need one to cruise offshore?
I plan to move my boat from a lake in PA. to the Hudson River to expand my cruising. I want to cruise he intercoastal waterway in the northeast eventually and take my boat to Cape Cod and Nantucket, where I vacation every year. Do I need a chartplotter or is a gps sufficient?
You do not need a chart plotter, but you do need charts. GPS is good but you still need charts and courses on navigation, tides and currents. Tides and currents in the Hudson run one way and in the East River the other. On the way t Nantuckett w found our GPS and compass differing by 45 degrees. It turned out there was such a current, the compass showed the direction the boat was pointing and the GPS showed the direction it was moving. Captain Eldridges Tides and Currents, updated every year, is handy.
