Invaluable Boating App

Best free Boating app I’ve found.
Great for Students & Trainees.
Top Job on this one ! πŸ‘πŸ»

Lots of useful stuff

Would be good to add TVMDC calculator

Key equipment

This app is what every boater needs, terrific!

Good

The app is good and gives many useful features. The only negative I'd give is that it is sometimes not easy to go back a page.

A great reference and calculator.

Just got it. Love it already. Love the leeway calculator.

Very Handy

Many more tools than advertised!

Why more info then I thought.

Had it just for a short while now, no crashes. Opens every time and has way, way more info then I ever thought it would have.

Well Done!

I am a professional seafarer, so I know whereof I speak. I am quite impressed by the information contained in this app. While the information is primarily aimed at boaters, rather than seafarers, and in many cases the definitions and information is new to me, it is very rational and sources are given. Well done, Double Dog!

If I had one recommendation to make. It would be to expand the content to include information for rookie seafarers.

OK

One significant issue with propeller sizing: it fails to take gear ratio into account so the result is that the recommended propeller size is much larger than necessary.

Great app!

This was a great app before the newest version, but it is now outstanding! This is the first review I have written for any app, and I have several hundred, many of which I've deleted after not finding them useful or them being the best of a category. This newest version of the app just does so much, and the UI is beautiful and elegant.

Captain

Very good basic tool for general sailing. Unfortunately it does not have yet a True Wind Calc which would be very useful for sailing in any environment. Have to say the Air Pilot Calc has it.

Excellent with one exception

The product is US-centric. As a safety concern, anyone using the pilotage and bouyage references elsewhere would get the exact opposite, i.e. System A versus System B. Similarly, the weather predictions section is wrong for the Southern Hemisphere.
Otherwise, this seems an excellent product.

Waste of money avoid

I'm a merchant seaman and this is a complete waste of money.

All calculations are so basic its embarrassing.

I will not be using this for anything.

Updated : still useless

An American app, unfortunately narrow minded

An American app, unfortunately narrow minded. Does not even acknowledge A region buoyage. Calculations all based on American methods. Not suitable for Europeans !!

PDRB

Excellent!!!

Review

Very good app! Would be very helpful is system a buoy age and rules for non US users!

The ultimate little boating app!

A remarkably useful app! Very informative and practical! Love the interface and page layouts. Keep up the good work!

Everything it claims to be

This app is all it claims to be and more! Exceptionally great quick reference program. Why try to remember formulas and have notes jotted all over when this app remembers everything you'll need for you? For only $2 I can't imagine any boater not wanting this great reference on hand!
