Using via IPhone, the GPS location is several hundred feet wrong. When in the middle of the river, it shows I am on land, no idea how to adjust it

my ipad is constantly crashing connection with my 7616xsv plotter. Have had this issue for years. Garmin has replaced the plotter twice. Elevated to engineering and still no solution. Keep thinking with every Active Captain and chartplotter update the problem will have been solved. If anyone from Garmin would like a trip on a luxury cat to sort this out, please know you are welcome. I have bought a new ipad. Problem still occurs frequently at random intervals. Sometimes 20 times an hour, other times runs hours at a time. On a 4 day passage with connectivity, so thought I would cirlce back.
