The Admiralty RYA Chart Plotter is a combined chart and software package designed as a basic introduction to electronic navigation. Developed with the beginner in mind, it is the result of the RYA's many years of experience in teaching navigation. It is supplied as a series of 11 UK Chart Packs, each of which includes the basic navigation software.

Each Chart Pack provides coverage of a specific sailing area in the UK from Newcastle around the south coast to the Clyde. You can buy any number of Chart Packs to extend your coverage. The simple navigation software provides only the few tools vital for electronic navigation, such as waypoint and route entry and connection to GPS for position-plotting.

The charts contained in the Chart Packs are Admiralty ARCS charts, "locked" to the Admiralty RYA Chart Plotter. This means that they cannot be used independently within other chart systems, such as Navmaster Offshore.
