For skippers, having the right tools is essential to ensure safe and enjoyable voyages. SavvyNavvy stands out as a comprehensive solution that combines the most important features a skipper needs. Described as the ‘Swiss knife’ of sailing apps, SavvyNavvy integrates navigation, weather, route creation and storage, and anchor alarms into one easy-to-use package. Let’s take a closer look at what makes SavvyNavvy V2 a must-have for skippers:
Key features of SavvyNavvy:
Navigation mode:
The Start button introduces a dynamic navigation mode that automatically records your track and stores it in the Saved section. This mode adapts to your actual course and position, immediately replotting the route and updating the ETA if you deviate. It provides easy access to key information such as Course Over Ground (COG), speed, elapsed time and distance, as well as a shortcut to the weather forecast. If you’ve planned a route, SavvyNavvy shows the Course to Steer (CTS), upcoming manoeuvres and ETA. Users can switch between a 3D view with course up or the classic 2D view with north up.
Cloud and rain overlay:
Stay ahead of the weather with SavvyNavvy’s new cloud and rain overlay feature. Zoom out to get a broad view of cloud cover and precipitation intensity to help you plan your trip.
Create and save itineraries:
SavvyNavvy allows users to easily create and save itineraries, making trip planning more efficient and organised.
Anchor Alarm:
The enhanced anchor alarm gives you full control of your swing zone right on the Savvy Chart™. You can easily set a simple circle or select a sector for special conditions. If you drift outside the defined ‘safe area’, SavvyNavvy alerts you with a loud alarm, ensuring your boat stays safe.
In addition, the amount you pay for SavyNavy includes maps of the entire world, which is a significant advantage over the competition.
SavvyNavvy sets a new standard for all-in-one boating apps, making it an essential tool for skippers looking to enhance their sailing experience.
