Navmaster Pilot
Portable electronic chart system for marine pilots
"The system works together excellently and is user-friendly. I can certainly recommend this system to anyone intending to go electronic. PC Maritime have been extremely helpful in the initial set-up and fine-tuning of the system."
Captain Andrew Ward, UK deep sea pilot
Navmaster Pilot provides software and wireless interfacing so that a pilot can connect his own laptop to ship's AIS within minutes of arriving onboard. No cables are necessary: communications between laptop and ship's AIS pilot plug are wireless. The system has been extensively tested by UK deep sea pilots, and the test results reported in The Pilot magazine.
