## What is SailNav GPS?

SailNav GPS is your essential sailing companion, designed exclusively for Apple Watch. GPS-only — no internet connection required, so it works wherever you sail.

DASHBOARD
All your essential sailing data at a glance: speed over ground, course over ground, heading, and your exact position.

NAVIGATION
Navigate to a waypoint or follow a route with ease. Clear heading guidance, distance to go, and estimated time of arrival — always visible.

ANCHOR ALARM
Drop anchor and get alerted if you drift out of range. Customize your radius, alarm delay, and alerts, and watch your live position relative to the anchor.

MAN OVERBOARD (MOB)
Mark a man overboard position instantly with a long press from anywhere in the app, and get clear direction and distance back to them, fast.

TRIP RECORDING
Track time, distance, average speed, and maximum speed during your trip.

SETTINGS
Choose your appearance, coordinate format, and distance and speed units to match how you sail.

Built by sailors, for sailors. Focus on what matters on the water.

Tip: for the best experience while sailing, set Return to Clock to "After 1 Hour" in your Watch settings (Apple Watch → Settings → General → Return to Clock), so SailNav GPS stays easily accessible when you raise your wrist underway.
