SeaHelp vs Sailor Croatia

SeaHelp – the breakdown service at sea   With this kind of service, SeaHelp App is offering to all skippers the possibilty of asking for professional help on short notice in breakdown or emergency situations in the areas of Croatia, Slovenia, Northern Italy and the Balearic Islands.   After activating the application, the help button has just to be pressed once in order to generate a SMS which will be received by the SeaHelp operations centre, tranferring the coordinates of the actual position, the mobile phone number and, in the case of a SeaHelp membership, as well the membership number. The SeaHelp operations centre will then promptly contact the skipper of the damaged boat by phone to get more detailed information and then will initiate the necessary supporting measures.  This service is aimed at all skippers in the operational area as mentioned above. Nevertheless, SeaHelp would like to point out that, given the case of several simultaneous emergency calls, there will be priority treatment for SeaHelp members. This service, though, on no account, is meant as a replacement for the conventional emergency alarm scenarios as established in seamanship but, at best, may serve as a supplement.    No internet link is required for the application of the SeaHelp emergency call function. Although, when using abroad roaming fees might occur, so, please contact your provider for information about the rates for using SMS and telephone services abroad.   Persons seeking help and not being SeaHelp members will be charged the accruing costs as indicated on the pricelist stated on our website under www.sea-help.eu . Please inform yourself before using this application for the first time.   In case you should find any mistakes within the information contained, we kindly ask you to advise us accordingly via the support sites indicated.   Range of functions: • Appeal for help via SMS to the SeaHelp operations centre indicating the coordinates of the actual position of the person seeking help, the mobile phone number for recalls from the SeaHelp operations centre and the SeaHelp membership number guaranteeing priority treatment in the case of several simultaneous requests for help. • Possibility of applying via iPhone for a SeaHelp membership, the breakdown service at sea and support point partner of the ADAC for the Croatia region as well as a cooperation partner of the ÖAMTC, the Austrian Sailing Federation and the Austrian Cruiser Federation.  Please note: activation of memebership will be made 24 hours after the application and receipt of payment by SeaHelp. • Direct access to the SeaHelp website. • Free of charge download of the printed edition of the SeaMagazine rehashed for iPhones.        Important notice: No liability will be assumed for the correct determination of the GPS coordinates by means of the iPhone as well as for the delivery of the SMS to SeaHelp.    This information is supplied without liability.

Boating in Croatia? Sailor shows you in real time how far you are from the nearest detected coast, along with your speed and heading — plus local Adriatic weather, route planning and live navigation. Built for holidaymakers out on a charter boat or their own along the Croatian coast. KEEPING THE 300-METRE RULE IN VIEW In Croatia a motorboat must be at least 300 metres from the coast to go faster than 8 knots; closer in, planing is not allowed. Sailor shows the distance continuously, can highlight the 300-metre zone around your boat, and warns you when you are going too fast close to shore. FREE — NO ADS, NO ACCOUNT • Distance to coast, speed and heading in real time • Adriatic weather forecast with wind overlay, temperature and precipitation • Explore places: coves, marinas and beaches straight on the map • Hazard markers: rocks, reefs and wrecks from OpenStreetMap seamarks WITH PRO • Coast radar — the 300-metre zone in every direction, for narrow passages • Real-time navigation with estimated arrival times • Route planning — the fastest path that aims to keep at least 300 m from the detected coast, with weather conditions, fuel estimates and route sharing • Lock screen and alerts — distance, heading and navigation progress on the lock screen and Apple Watch, without unlocking your phone • Large, sunlight-adapted display — big numbers and a high-contrast simplified view • Trip recording — route, speed and distance to coast recorded even with the app closed • Trip stories — turn a recorded trip into a video along the coast, with your own photos, your boat name and your stats • Offline areas — download coast data in advance; distance keeps working with no mobile signal WHAT SAILOR DOES NOT DO Sailor is a navigation aid, not a substitute for official nautical charts, a proper lookout or good seamanship. It contains no depth data — routes and navigation account for neither water depth nor your vessel's draft. Distance, coastline and hazard data are estimates and may be inaccurate, delayed or incomplete; not all hazards are shown. Keep a comfortable margin rather than testing the limit.
