An invaluable tool - far cheaper and more convenient than hardback cruising guides.

Having sailed from Tunisia through Malta Sicily Sardinia the Balearics and Spain this year, we have found it an essential tool. We have used many aspects of the app-the route planner to is especially helpful. The Anchorage protection guide is also very useful and the fact that you can contact people already there to check current conditions is great. The up-to-date reviews of facilities, Restaurants et cetera also make exploring new places and even more pleasurable experience especially if you are on a route with limited time. Compared to most things in the marine industry, the cost is buttons especially when viewed against these benefits. Highly recommend!
I like the current format a lot
Classic Dawn
I have added objective comments to anchorages and locations and will continue to do so.I have also used the chat facility to advise people of current fuel/provision/price situation regarding recent places I have rated, when asked.This works well.The simplicity and level of sophistication is perfectly adequate for me.A higher level of complexity or deeper level of engagement would encourage my interest to wain.
Don’t buy for itinerary
Dav1dH
I was looking forward to creating my itinerary on the paid version before my sailing holiday starts, but what a massive disappointment. You can only put a single start and end point, and you can’t even save that. The route disappears if you close the small itinerary window also. Absolutely useless in my opinion. I’ll use it for anchorage’s and weather I guess , but it’s not what prompted me to buy it. I won’t be renewing.—update to my previous review, and happy increase my rating as the app was valuable for finding good anchorages on our holiday in Croatia. Thx

Hi David, I understand you're unhappy with Premium. Don't hesitate to ask for a refund via Apple. No hard feelings! Sorry we weren't what you were looking for.
Essential guide to marinas and anchorages
Capt Puggy
I am cruising from the UK to the Med and this is the most useful app for finding the right anchorage based on the weather etc. The user reviews and AI summary in premium give you real life recent experience. Also put into wind mode and you can filter the anchorages by protection. A great app - the integration with savvy navvy is brilliant as well. Also the support team at Navily are really responsive - spot an issue and they are on it. Recommended.
The map keeps getting better!
In this update:
- A cleaner map with a new menu that keeps useful actions close at hand without cluttering the screen.
- An easier way to add marinas, anchorages, and marine businesses directly from the map.

- An improved Itinerary Mode, better integrated into the new map experience.
