In Canal Planner version 7 there are a number of ways of creating your route. You can either build your route manually, or by selecting a start and end location and letting Canal Planner calculate the quickest route, or let Canal Planner tells you how far you can get by selecting a start location and length of cruise.
Canal Planner will calculate the time required to complete your journey, as well as the distance and number of locks.
Canal Planner 7 also introduces maps for the first time. Maps are illustrative and have locations, boatyards, pubs and attractions highlighted on them. In order to provide users will full maps we have utilised Google mapping.
