Hint: When preparing to enter any harbour, you should always view the pilotage book associated to that harbour.

Thanks Grant. I was trying to locate that info in the RYA Training Chart Plotter, hoping it was similar to the Navionics app. If you click on a harbour symbol in that app it brings up all that info so there is no need to reference another source.

I was looking at the question about the chart plotter and the ETA.
I wondered - do modern chartplotters include expected changes in the set and drift over time for a long journey, or does the system assume that the current set and drift will act consistently on the boat throughout the whole journey? If the latter this could change ETA dramatically - good reason to set frequent measurable and predictable waypoints en route I suppose.
