early days for me but the detail is better.and the 3d marriners eye view above and below water line is impressive. they allso have fishing charts illiminating all chart clutter and showing bottom contours.allso has the guide to feature which searches relevant chart data to give safest course.
tidal currents and tides at present or nearest location. time will tell.
