"As someone cruising the Great Loop, the USACE survey overlays are an absolute lifesaver. Navigating the shifting sands of the ICW used to be stressful, but Aqua Map provides the most accurate depth data available. It's the only app I trust when the water gets thin."

"The NMEA integration and AIS collision detection transformed my iPad into a professional-grade chartplotter. Being able to see my boat's instrument data and weather forecasts on one screen while offshore gives me incredible peace of mind. It is easily the best investment I've made for my boat."
