Hello, Lanzo. In which area will your boat be navigating? I mean, which coast
are you talking about? It should be easy to get a reasonably good shapefile of
that shoreline and you would be permanently informed of the distance to the
nearest vertex.
Regards,
Juan Lucas

gvSIG Mobile 0.1.4 was released today, here's a guide that
should help you:

Create a shapefile of your coast line (or download a shapefile
for a
country) and you should be good to go.
