" .. As a planner it is superb because of the tidal predictions and the tidal stream arrows, which are coupled with an ingenious menu that calculates exactly where you and your cross track error will be at any projected time. .. the planner is comprehensive (you can factor in the wind) and the menu structure is so well designed that usage is almost intuitive."
Practical Boat Owner June 2006
" .. As a planning
tool it is very good... Verdict.. A very useful planning tool, especially
for planning tidal strategies."

" ..We found the
program a valuable navigation aid and particularly useful when interfaced
with a GPS and a Yeoman Plotter"

"..Exactly what
good software should be. Easy to use, quick to load and take the slog out
of mundane tasks."
Sailing Today February 2001
"..This simple
approach meant it was easy to set up... This is an unbelievably fast and
simple process required no more that 5 mouse clicks and 7 seconds to get
up a data table. A further click removes the table to reveal a chart plot,
including a series of 'spots' showing where the tide will have pushed the
boat for each hour of the passage."

"... ranks as a serious PC Planner and - if you use a GPS - interfaced PC on board - is a realistic cartography and navigation plotter...it is very good value and is giving me a lot of pleasure..."

"... The hot hatch-back of charting software, this looks like a pretty pedestrian programme, but actually turned in a planning performance
that knocked spots off most of the competition..."

"..
Whatever your budget, the program is as good as any other I have tried.
It's simple to use and to set up your own boat's draught and will then
give you a graph of depth at any time on any day with clear indicator of
whether you can make it across the shallows.."

If you already have a Jornada, Tides CE is a valuable enhancement. .. The

After putting this program through its paces I can say that it is the best
tidal program that I have come across .."
