I put the navionics app on my iPad. I use the sat map and plot my route through the bush ahead of time. Cheap and works well. Just make sure you have the GPS ipad model.

If there is a GPS/map app for Android (Smart Phones) that will work in Baja without a cell signal that has Google Earth or other topo maps (like the DeLorme unit uses), please let us know!

The trimble and gaia apps are good.
Sometimes phones, tablets get poor or disabled gps reception off cell grid, so add a blue tooth antenna
