Whether your passion is cruising, fishing, day-sailing, or anything else that involves getting from one place to another, Maptech helps make your time on the water more enjoyable and a whole lot easier. From the simplest paper charts to multi-functional Touch Screen Command systems, our marine product line is designed with ease-of-use in mind.


Even in this age of high-tech electronics, all smart boaters carry paper charts as a primary source or as a backup to their electronics. No batteries required!

We now have over 100 "flip-fold" Waterproof Charts covering favorite fishing and boating areas. There's even a Navigation Training Series that covers topics such ast Chart Symbols and "How to use GPS with Charts."

ChartKit Books and Waterproof Chartbooks include a Companion CD that has the same identical charts that are in the books. Once you see the same chart from the book on your computer, you will start to see how easy and straightforward PC navigation can be.

And if you want a great cruising companion, our Embassy Guide series is ready for travel. They are so popular and well-respected that you just might want a copy for the boat and at home.


There's a reason so many boaters use PCs for trip planning as well as GPS navigation on the water. The large, full-color screens let you see a lot of chart area. PCs are also easy to upgrade with new chart data. And of course, laptops are portable.

Chartbook Companion CDs are the easiest way to get started in PC Navigation. They have the exact same charts as in our popular chartbooks as well as "Offshore Navigator Lite" GPS Planning and Chartplotting software. Connect a GPS, and your boat position displays right on the PC screen. Chartbooks with Companion CDs start at $49.95 and cover many popular boating regions.

Chart Navigator Pro is our best GPS planning and chartplotting software–it comes with advanced cartography and navigation data for the entire U.S. coastline. Chart Navigator Pro is $499.95 for the whole enchilada.

If you're going into international waters, check out International Charts covering Canada, the Bahamas and Caribbean, Europe and the Mediterranean, and New Zealand and the Pacific. If you live outside the U.S., please visit our international distributors.


Mobility is a sign of the times. More and more boaters demand detailed charts for handheld devices like Windows Mobile Pocket PCs. Learn more about Maptech’s mobile solutions.
