Our pledge

The safety essentials are free, forever

Some things should not sit behind a subscription. One-tap MOB and the anchor alarm are free for everyone, forever — no trial, no tier, no exceptions.

  • One-tap MOB — drops a man-overboard mark and starts auto-return navigation instantly.
  • Anchor alarm — set a watch circle and get woken the moment your anchor drags.
  • Collision alarm — AIS CPA/TCPA warnings when another vessel gets too close, part of the Premium AIS overlay.
