NavTools GPS allows you to connect an existing GPS (NMEA 0183 serial connection, cables and hardware not included in this distribution) to your computer system, whereafter GPS positions will automatically be logged at user specified intervals and required course/speed/ and enginesettings will continually be calculated and displayed to the user.

NavTools GPS is able to share files and data with an existing NavTools Route installation and can read and write data and voyage files created via NavTools Route. This will allow you to plan and create a voyage in NavTools Route, and execute this voyage on NavTools GPS. Furthermore, position reports (AMVER, SISTRAM, AUSREP, etc) and noon reports can be easily and fully automatically created from NavTools GPS, saving the onboard navigator considerable time and effort. Similar to NavTools Route, this new application includes a lot of useful tools for day to day navigation.

However, if you do not have NavTools Route, you are still able to create and use voyage data files via NavTools GPS (use a right mouse click on the 'Schedule' list to add, edit, or delete waypoints).

If you do not have a GPS/NMEA0183 serial connection to your computer, you can still use NavTools GPS by manually entering position data.

NavTools Route can be tested for 30 days without any costs or obligation, whereafter you will need to buy a registration key to continue using the software.
