Part 1 in our 5-part Marine Electronics for Every Size Boat series.
We thought we knew a thing or two about gear for our boats, but then again - we thought having a smart phone with a navigation app might be good enough... not! And that's why we love sitting down with leaders in the field like Kim Baker, who really know their stuff. We asked Kim to walk us through marine electronics options for every size boat, as if we were a new client of his Winsor Consulting.

7:35 your phone lost service but you still have your location via GPS. If you have off-line map on your phone/tablet it will show your location on the map.
Kim baker is a knowledgeable , educated and amazing .We need more from him, we need more...........
This is worrying that a so - called expert states "as I understand it" but is wrong! As long as you have your charts downloaded to your smartphone, your gps tells you where you are NOT the cellphone towers!
He also states that you can not protect your smartphone. I have a fully waterproof phone which is then placed in a shock proof and waterproof protective case.
I have yet to find ANY specialist in navionics give an informed, accurate and honest comparison.
I am a skipper of just 35 years, and 2nd Class Master.
I use a cheap tablet to run the navionics in a waterproof bag, backed up with my smart phone in its case. In 10 years, I have never needed to fire up my 12v fitted boat nav gear, except to confirm that my other cheaper systems are just as accurate.
Yep there are many EXPERTS around..lol
Nope. The GPS on a phone is independent of cellular positioning. In fact, I use Navionics Boating app on a Wifi-only iPad (no cellular service) on my boat as my backup chart plotter. I connect it to an external GPS antenna via Bluetooth. From a UX perspective, it’s way easier to use than my main chartplotter, and just as accurate. If the screen were easier to read in direct sunlight, it’d be my main device.
Excellent video! Despite all the gizmos
1. Keep an hourly paper log
2. Write your position hourly on a paper chart.
3. When your electronics go down -and they will- you'll be glad you've been doing 1 & 2.
Offline charts no service needed location comes direct to the phone without service.
Many smartphones and tablets have a GPS chip set in them that will pick up several of the satellites in orbit and triangulate your position. I run an iPhone 6S and an iPad on board. Both units are mounted on a Ram mount with a lighting cord to keep them fully charged. I also have a GPS receiver in my Standard Horizon VHF radio that outputs the AIS and GPS data via wires to a wireless hub that connects to either the phone or iPad and have navigated in cold Alaskan waters when it was too foggy to see more than 100' in front of the boat. So, for this expert to not differentiate between phones and tablets that don't have the GPS chip set and those that do is not only not accurate but also concerning that he might not be aware of that fact. I've used my iPad to cross the Gulf of Alaska, where there's zero cell service for 600 miles, as well as down the entire Baja peninsula, again without cell service, and the GPS worked flawlessly.
Same here. I was scratching my head the whole time and wondering if anyone else caught it. I've used Google Maps on my phone to drive through deserts where there's no reception for over 100 miles.
@@jonmccauley6490 how did you download the Google Earth maps? I know it's possible but have never been able to figure it out...
He is wrong...........GPS works out at sea on a phone (with real gps...most have these days
Wise advice from this man. A paper chart, a number 2 pencil and a handheld to replace a sextant ( I still keep one onboard) with a calibrated compass and you will be fine.
Very useful video! Keep them coming!
Loving all the instructional videos on this channel! Please consider getting a tripod or handheld gimbal for your videographer.
GPS doesn't need an internet connection to run. GPS or Global Positioning System is a chip in your device that listens to the satellites, which helps it determine and lock your current position. There are plenty of GPS only devices that work without any internet, wifi or Cellular data.
You do not need service to navigate!! It has a built in GPS.
USB connection to power for the battery.
Cellphones are using the same GPS as these small devices so the argument that 'Cellphones are depended on cell-towers' is not really valid....
Where the hell is part 2?
Great info. But the camera constantly moving is irritating.
Use an external battery for the phone and several of the problems mentioned would disappear.
where is part 2

I have never been lost and I can prove it. Because I am posting this proves I have not been lost. I also use WAAS GPS whenever I am out and about on God's green earth.
Brilliant work! Keep it up! Would you like to be RUclips friends? :]
Are you sure your so-called expert actually knows what he is talking about?
I mean, phones DON'T need land towers for navigation, that's what satellites are for
I love off center harbor and their instructional video. I discovered them on RUclips. The down side is that they only give “part one” of the series then push you to the main website then ask for registration before you can see the rest of the series. RUclips is optimized for smartphones, the main website at OffCenter Harbor is not. Results in very clunky experience. Our more instructional videos in your RUclips channel and figure out another way to get my email address, which I’d be happy to share.
