Glad ActiveCaptain helps and thanks for being a contributor. We have big plans for the iPhone. Although I have about 20 mobile phones, the iPhone is the one on my pocket for real daily use today. I'm even entering this reply with it while at the helm. We're approved and certified iPhone developers and have a variety of apps in mind as soon as the "X" version of the web site is complete. The iPhone apps will make use of some of X's features like nautical charts - offline even. Again though, the real value of all of this comes from the contributions that all the captains like you make. That's the zen of ActiveCaptain that makes it useful for all of us. Ted – loved your comment. Glad ActiveCaptain helps and thanks for being a contributor.

ActiveCaptain was in fact and "active" part of our voyage. We used it for local knowledge for hazards to navigation, overnight docking, fuel and lots more. We even printed out color photos of some areas like St Augustine so we had that on top of our chartplotter and paper charts. We have been regulary adding to the site as we feel that the more info out there, the safer and happier our fellow boaters will be. AC- keep up the good work. I intend to put it on my Iphone soon if it is compatible.
