Curt, In the google app store there are 3 apps I like a lot. MX Mariner, Earth NC, and Tide Charts. MX Mariner and Earth NC are both GPS plotter apps. I particularly like MX Mariner because you pre-download the charts. No cell service? No problem. Some reviewers had said that the paid version of Earth NC doesn't add value so stick to the free one.
