Float Plan now allows you to enter multiple trip destinations, multiple crew and even multiple vessels. You can also add a photo of the vessel that will be attached to the emailed float plan.
Check off the combination of vessel, crew and destinations you want included in your float plan . Add dates and times to the destinations and click a button to email that information from your iPhone to a person of trust.
