In a few weeks time, i will be going sailing for a week and i will not have any internet access at sea. the only chess equipment i can realistically take is my trusty ipad.

Does anyone of any decent software for Ipad that will keep me occupied during down time?

Many thanks

The Shredder IPad chess app is good. It has a tactics trainer like on chess.com with 1000 puzzles. The engine is okay. I don't think it is as strong as the PC version or Stockfish but it is fine for quick games.

On my iphone I use tChessPro and SmallFish, I guess they should work fine on ipad.

Thanks for your input.......has anyone tried the Chessking/CT-Art Apps for ipad?

If so, can you use them offline?

Do you need something like a chess engine to analyse the games, right? You may try Smallfish or Stockfish Chess which both uses the current No. 1 chess engine: Stockfish.

No...just a engine to play against and some tactics software.

Anyone heard of Chessimo? that looks interesting!

CT-ART 4.0 is probably the best tactics trainer app (offline) that  know of.
