Ben, Does NOAA somewhere list the locations they have yet to cover with ENC? The MotionX chart downloads are quite slow so it does require some careful planning ahead if you will be cruising out of cell phone range. This raises the more general issue of depending on downloads when traveling. Even auto trips can run you out of maps if they need a cell signal to download. I always carry my Verizon Mifi in my pocket when traveling as I travel outside ATT coverage regularly. It also reminds that when buying an iPad for Nav to consider a larger memory for all the maps and charts you will download. The MotionX ENC download for LIS to Maine is 12 GB at max detail. That requires multiple overnight download time. MotionX popularity doubtless has there server very busy. I will predict that they will later intro a premium version with faster downloading. Brian


iNavX for $20 is a good deal (thanks, Patrick!). This app has always been solid at full navigation and also integration with boat data over WiFi, plus it offers the widest selection of raster and vector charts available on any iOS app (by a long shot, I think). And in recent years new ownership has made many improvements, details here: It looks like you can get a free trial copy of iNavX from their site or just buy it here on iTunes: -sailing-boating-and-marine-navigation/id286616280 2ff7e9595c
