User reviews

This is the reference for cruisers

As a live aboard cruisers of 3.5 years, this is the app I use at least daily. It is basically Google Maps for Cruisers, showing anything relevant at pretty much any location around the world. From anchorages, to dinghy docks, groceries and sights to see, this app has that information. Best of all is that the data and reviews are crowdsourced by fellow cruisers, and because it is cruisers’ de facto app, it constantly gets updated.
Built from the ground up by two tech savvy cruisers, which is why it fills this need so well.
It is free and so good that it is supported by Patreon donations.

A must have

No Foreign Land, or NFL, is an absolute must for any sailor. The BEST resource for finding restaurants, laundry, water, fuel, and good anchoragesAll of which often determine our route. Plus we can see where all of our sailing friends are and connect with new ones.

Very useful

These is such a helpful app. It’s solid and well built, no weird glitches. I’ve found it so helpful when researching anchorages. Also, we have a dog. And I can filter for good places to dock or beach the dingy for the dog. Also for connecting with other Boats that are in an anchorage I plan to visit. I’ve asked is the holding good or if there is room to anchor/moor, etc.

Okay, Website is better

Scroll wheel doesn’t work for zoom in our out in the app like the website. I just default to the website.

Life saving app for cruisers

We’ve been crediting now for almost a year and love this app. It is our “go to” app for learning about anchorages and meeting fellow cruisers. It is incredibly useful and functional. We’ve learned so much and have met so many amazing people via this app. Such a great resource. Highly recommend for any cruiser!
