How to export a route as a GPX file?
Savvy Navvy isn’t just another marine navigation app — it’s the only one that builds intelligent routes based on wind, weather, tide, your boat settings, and even local regulations. This means smarter, safer passage planning every time you set sail.
If you’d like to use your Savvy Navvy route on a chartplotter such as Garmin or Raymarine, you can easily export it as a GPX file.
