Online Boat Route Planner

Online or Offline
Being in coastal waters or just lacking cell coverage is not a problem. Routing and navigating will always work. The only features requiring a mobile connection are dedicated map styles and processing OpenShipData reports.
OpenShipSata as a merger of AIS and Apps
We developed a platform to provide global ship locations by using VHF receivers world-wide: OpenShipData. Additionally, other apps are also sharing boat locations to the platform data lake.
Navigate safer when you are aware what ships are approaching. And not the least, it is fun to watch them going by on the map.
Group Trips
It is fun to sail with other people in a flotilla. Therefore, the Friends feature will give you both fun and safety.
The feature will show your friends on the map, including their destination, coarse, speed, and ETA. This way, sailing is made more fun and safer.
