ActiveCaptain Review

I’ve been a long time Garmin user. The ActiveCaptain app is a great feature. Although I’m just getting acclimated to its functions it apparently will be a great addition to my boating electronics.

Not well integrated

I have both Navionics (Fro my RayMarine) and Active Captain for my Garmin and I cant get the charts to update either place

Great enhancement application for an already great product.

Was very impressed with the feature set this app adds to your Garmin device. Updates and community sharing of map information makes your chart plotter and fish finder a much more useful tool for a long time to come.
