Avia is affordable and versatile Windows® software that brings sophisticated instrumentation to the everyday power boater or sailor.

Avia software receives data from onboard sensors via the industry standard NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000® protocols, and presents the data as crystal-clear analog and digital instruments on your Windows® PC, netbook or tablet, designed with a look and feel familiar to all boaters.

Avia Motor software is designed for the single or multi-engine power boater. Avia Motor supports instrumentation such as tachometers, speed, engine, tank, AC and DC power, and weather instruments, and in the Pro version, twin engine support.

Avia Sail software is perfect for use by all sailors from the coastal cruiser to the performance racer. Avia Sail supports additional instrumentation for sailors such as apparent and true wind speed, real-time current, heel angle, and in the Pro version, real-time wind/polar plots.

Optimized for netbook, tablet or laptop
Avia software runs perfectly using a Windows netbook, tablet or laptop computer. We recommend Windows 7, but Windows Vista and XP SP 3 also work well. Large, clear and scalable graphics and buttons ensure easy viewing and data input, even while on a rolling and pitching sailboat!

Connections to NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000®
Connect your on-board sensors using standard NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000

Supports industry leading sensors
Avia Sail accepts all leading marine sensors via NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 such as Airmar depth-sounders and wind/weather devices, such as the Airmar PB200, which provides True Wind, Apparent Wind, Air Temperature, Barometric Pressure, Wind Chill, WAAS / EGNOS GPS, 3-Axis Compass, and 3-Axis Accelerometer.

Avia Lite or Pro?
(Click for feature comparison)
Both Avia Motor and Avia Sail are available in Lite and Pro versions.

The Lite version includes a single simplified dashboard and is quick to configure.

The Pro version includes:

Network enabled
Avia Motor Pro and Avia Sail Pro are network-enabled applications, allowing you to have multiple displays, so you can have your instruments shown at the navigation station and at the helm or even at multiple screens for the helmsman wanting to see a wide selection of instruments. The Pro versions will also output NMEA 0183 data to one or two com ports (NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 input data are multiplexed for output), or via WiFi for connectivity with the compatible iNavX marine navigation application for iPhone or iPad.

Instrumentation overlay
Avia Motor Pro and Avia Sail Pro can be configured to 'float' on your navigation software window, so you can configure a dashboard that exactly meets your needs.

Connects to iNavX for iPhone, iPad
Avia Motor Pro and Avia Sail Pro include a TCP/IP server to send NMEA 0183 data via WiFi to the iNavX App for iPhone and iPad. Now you can see many of the Avia instruments directly in iNavX.
