Until Garmin screwed it up, the Active Captain on line map website worked pretty good for trip planning. It let you produce routes on the NOAA chart and see all AC markers for marinas, anchorages, etc along the way. You could save the route and then download it for uploading to your chart plotter.


But alas early this year, Garmin introduced their "new and improved" AC map and it no longer supports routes or even simple point to point distance measurement. There is no expectation that it will ever be reinstated.


Coastal Explorer or OpenCpn is another way, but it sure seems like overkill compared to the old AC on line map.
