You're probably better off with Freeship (even cheaper as its free!)

Check the software section at the bottom of the home page of this forum

It's a scam. Don't give that guy any money. It's freeship/defltship with a new title. Please see these other threads:

Is it FreeShip or the free version of DelftShip which are available legitimately for free?

Both are available for free. Delftship is a commercial fork of the open source Freeship project under the ownership of the original author.

DELFTship free is the commercial product (DELFTship professional) with some features disabled.

I use Freeship, and it is quite ok for me - it helps me bring all my ideas to life, and I made the best use of it while modelling my own boat.
