Simulation route aid while on passage

Saw a YouTube where the sailor was simulating his passage while sailing.

He could simulate his route against tide currents wind etc while on passage.

Anyone know what software ? Navionics ?

Thanks

PredictWind among others. Navionics does not incorporate wind or current forecasts into its routing AFAIK.

Look for a product with "weather routing".

I think Savvy Navvy also does this but I have no experience with it.

I have used Predict Wind with an Iridium Go (for GRIB files when offshore) to do exactly what you’re looking for.
