Product Overview

Navi-Sailor 2400 is the early version of  vectorised charting and navigation software for your PC, laptop or dedicated hardware. The system contains a chart folio pack of your choice, and additional folios can be easily selected and purchased from our chart catalogue provided with the product.
This powerful computer navigation software has its roots in the professional suite of navigation products from Transas Marine. Transas navigation products are trusted and used by commercial shipping lines and Mega Yachts throughout the world.
Because Tsunamis uses only proprietary Transas vector cartography it is the only vector chart/software integrated system.  Tsunamis can zoom in/out on a chart with no loss of clarity, show information as layers (rather than as a flat picture), set intelligent alarms, show navigation aid information on demand (called "chart interrogation"), tidal information and more.
Charts are purchased from the Transas database of over 4200 quality charts, many derived from acclaimed British Admiralty cartography. Email or call BCP to order Transas Charts.

 

 

Easy to use

Full-colour interface and high quality graphics provide clear and easy to understand information.

Route/voyage plan logbook

Enter waypoints with a click of the mouse, save it and then load the route into your voyage plan table, along with ETD and average speed. The ETA is then calculated at each waypoint, even taking into account the effects of tidal currents.

Zoom in with no loss of clarity

Vectorised charts allow 50 levels of zooming from 1:200,000,000 to just 1:1,000. Text and symbols automatically self-adjust, providing instant high-resolution colour clarity.

Personalise your charts

Add symbols, lines, text and dangers etc. to form your own navigational plan or record chart observations, anchorage, shipwrecks or even favoured fishing spots.

Multiple layers of information to customise your display

Vector Charts (layered information) mean you can view or hide layers of information instantly - making it as complex or uncluttered as you wish.

Screen adjustable for day/night/twilight/dusk display

The screen adjustment facility is designed to optimise viewing quality in varying lighting conditions.

Integrate your GPS and other instruments to create a powerful navigation system

Navi-Sailor 2400 can interface with up to 10 sensors (NMEA 0183 compatible), including autopilot, speedlog, wind, compass, sounder etc. Connect to your GPS and see your boat move in 'real time' on the chart display. Navi-Sailor 2400 can automatically lay a track showing where you're going and where you've been. See your true/apparent wind and depth on display - as it happens.

User-definable alarms

For a variety of scenarios - approach of shallow water, navigational dangers, waypoints, user-defined marks etc.

Navtex 'real time' screen safety warnings

Interfacing Navi-Sailor 2400 with suitable Navtex (RS232) equipment will provide the reassuring added safety feature of on-screen warnings.

Display up to 5 charts on screen simultaneously

Multi-chart navigation on screen, with all the information you need - even the most complex passage can now be planned with convenience and enjoyment.

Tidal Information

Simply choose a date and port, enter the draught of your boat, and the tidal curve will appear. Choose the 'currents' option and tidal vectors will be displayed by the hour. Predicted, set and drift is also displayed in 'real time' at boat's position.

'Info' function

Unique to vector charts, Info function allows you to 'interrogate' any selected chart object, (eg. full details of light characteristics or dangerous shipwrecks). Invaluable information at the click of a mouse.

'Playback' function

Watch your voyage replayed on screen. Stop, start, scroll forward or back. A full record of each day's cruising or racing is stored on hard disk for replay at your leisure. Screen-save and print-out facility is also provided.
