### 5/5 — Digital Seaways is Awesome

*2015-12-27*

Having spent the last several decades waiting often impatiently for my hard copy of Seawaves to arrive or even worse, being at sea and unable to access the latest editions I am extremely happy to see the Nautical Institute has launched this smartphone friendly way of accessing the flagship journal. The app is very easy to navigate through, allowing downloads of individual editions and lead through pages exactly as if the hard copy was in my hands.  Bravo Zulu to Nautical Institute's Publications group for this latest move to keep Mariners and readers connected and up to date.
