All autorouting existing today can find a route from A to B only if they are both in open water, while good guidance and planning is most needed in cramped complex waterways with a maze of variables.
Head to the next destination with Dock-to-dock Route Guidance1. It creates a suggested route, from a real start point to a real end point, based on chart data and navigation aids.
What you can do
