How the app is organized

AnchorQueen has eight tabs along the side (landscape / iPad) or top

(portrait iPhone). AnchorQueen is the chart; its pill opens three more

chart modes — Sea Sports, Capt's Notebook and Merconi. The other

seven tabs — SafeAnchor, Remote, Meteo, Jules, Store, Captain and Settings —

are companion tabs.
