I’m coastguard volunteer so I hardly use Navionics and Windy. Those 2 apps are amazing tech. For Navily, like Savvy Navvy, no much use here in Wellington,New Zealand, but hopefully the community will be growing. Cool channel. Great content
Hey thanks! Yeah, I was speaking to the guys at Navily just the other day about growing their community. They have some really sweet ideas coming up! Btw. Welling to Able Tasman…. Unforgettable!
In addition to Predict wind, there is also Predict wind off shore, it enables you to down load grib files (also in free version). Really handy in coastal situations where you are without cell covearge for a day or two.
@yanassi hey! Thanks for letting us know. Don’t stress, if you have the ability to use TH-cam you will be able to sail no problemo! Piece of cake. If you need any help or videos making just let us know !
Anchor app saved me already, I´ve used it many times and the mirror function when you are away in a restaurant is fantastic tool... Usually I leave the Ipad on the boat and mirror it from my iPhone ... amazing
I've got to say this was the most informative video on those apps that I've seen!! Even when you already use one of the mentioned, you guys talked about the full potential of each one ( I know I'm guilty of sometimes just use the basic features of each one....and I bet I'm not alone hehe ) Great video Guys, you never stop amazing me
intrestingly, as a dinghy cruiser I'm already using anchor, windy and navionics. good to know these are sound choices. navionics tide data is up to 45 minutes out where I live though - so that last point from the Bear is really true!
Hi! Thanks for the comment, we’ve got a whole bunch of studio work coming up after the season! If you have anything you want it to cover let us know here or over on Instagram!
ANCHOR ALARM APPS: 1.If you set your anchoralarm App without having WiFi, be advised that your position gonna be pretty unprecise. 2.Sitting in a bar ashore and after a couple drinks your mobile remote tells you that your boat is draging, you have to be pretty fast(and still fit) to jump in your dinghy, speed back to your boat, start the engine to avoid he worst. My advise: Give allways plenty chain (you payed for it) Go on reverse, fix a mark on shore and check if your position stays stable. Take mask and snorkel to check your anchor. This helps for a good sleep.😊💤
Hey. Something strange going on here, we can’t find it anymore either! However others still seem to be able to download it. I would’ve if there must be some country restrictions now. Sorry about this.
Hey, try wiring a usb 3.1 (blue internals) a usb-c would be even better but you will need a new cable. Basically you need higher amps than the standard usb can provide for an iPad. My recommendation would be these guys - www.scanstrut.com/uk/marine/charge/usb
@captain-Dan no worries, and thanks for joining us!!still very young and trialing content really but I think we n know where we’re heading now! Looking forward to the season ahead! 👍
So happy to be in the top 3 !!!! Thank you guys for featuring us and for such an extensive review of the app. I think you covered everything :D
Cheers guys, give us a shout on Instagram, we want to find out more about your seagrass charting!

Legendary! Cheers for adding that Will 👍👌⛵️
Thanks guys, i’m recently considering boating. Such apps are taking the fears out of how to boat travel.

Superb, although…. I think, it’s since disappeared from the App Store! Oh no!
@@SailHub I still can see the app in the store.. Probably country restriction?
@@migaguiar must be, that’s good news - I really got on with it as did the many others that recommended it! 😅👍
Really interesting video. We've changed Anchor app already. Cheers guys 😊
Thanks guys, great to hear it works useful for you!! 👍

Hi Rafa! Cheers for that, always stoked to hear from you. It was a fun video to put together and we learned a lot ourselves too!

Cool, that’s good to hear from you - great to hear about navionics, I believe they are working on this in various areas. - where exactly are you?
@@SailHub Firth of Forth - Navionics Leith tides sometimes differ significtantly from UKHO
@@bigbadthesailor5173 cheers for that, Nice place to sail, quite like Eyemouth - special memories!
Yes please. More of this. Liked how you both did this.

Thanks, just wanted to say I love wind finder and C-Maps.
Cheers
Sure, they were pretty up on the list! Maybe we should have a look at trying them ourselves 👍
Very good. Was needed.
Cheers Tom, thanks for the support 👍
What a great informative video!
Cheers guys! ✌️

For sure! Nothing beats a well set anchor!
Great insight, will definitely check them out. I use windy for everything not just sailing. Great app
Cheers John! Glad you found it insightful. Thanks for letting us know!
I have tried to find the anchor alarm you mentioned in the USA.
All I get is a home alarm company in California.
HELP!

"Anchor" not available from Denmark, on the 22nd of September 2023, for Android.
Thanks for the update, it seems Anchor is restricted in many parts of the world. 😖
Is there any app that makes the phone to pick up the buoy and serve the drinks?
😂if you find it,TELL US!
Great Review guys
Cheers princess!! 🤟
Any suggestions for charging an ipad from 12v? All my regular USB sockets dont manage....
Hey, try wiring a usb 3.1 (blue internals) a usb-c would be even better but you will need a new cable. Basically you need higher amps than the standard usb can provide for an iPad. My recommendation would be these guys - www.scanstrut.com/uk/marine/charge/usb
@@SailHub yes i think scanstrut is the way to go. Saw a bunch amazon sockets claiming to do it but i am doubtful... thanks mucho!
@studioelastik yeah, they make good products - however anything with a usb 3.1 or above socket will work 👍
I like Savvy navvy in norway for my seilingboat
Nice! Thanks for sharing your thoughts! They have a really well regarded service, we’ve used them in the Med quite a bit, it’s great 👍
i am not finding the anchor app with same icon picture in google store. who is the publisher?
Hey, so it looks like the developer is “Pomacanthus”. Hope this helps! Maybe this can help too? anchor.webs.com/
apps.apple.com/gb/app/anchor-drag-alarm/id661180281
@@SailHub arh ha. It is an apple only app and I am android.
Ah that’s a shame! Sorry about that, it’s news for us. Let’s hope they release it for Android soon!! 🤞🏼
@@simontaylor3492 no way, I never knew that, how dissatisfying.
1 of the reasons i go sailing is to be away from the phone😂😂😂
Fair play!
i tried navionics but they had no free english maps only free american?
Yeah, it seems that they have different options and restrictions all over the world. Sorry about that
Anchor drag alarm Not free!
We know, it’s now a charged service, it’s also no longer available in many countries! Sorry.
WOW
Wow?
Damn, Anchor! Is $5.
Cheeky buggers, fancy putting a price on it. Typical.
Thank for letting us know 👍
That anchor app is £4.99 now :(
Thanks for letting everyone know, if you go for it, let us know if you think it’s worth it.
Anchor is $7.99au here
Thanks for that, it’s super important to let people know the prices around the world!
Your windy is VERY different to my windy
There are two Windy’s? Windy.com and Windy.app. Windy.app made it into our top 5 👍⛵️
@@SailHub thanks for clearing that up 🙌🏻 I've just discovered the channel and I'm enjoying the content
@captain-Dan no worries, and thanks for joining us!!still very young and trialing content really but I think we n know where we’re heading now! Looking forward to the season ahead! 👍
Anchor alarm is $6.99, not free.
Thanks for the info - it seems that this app is now a paid purchase and also not available in many countries anymore!
Would love to see a 2024 update for this video
Not much has changed fella! Not enough to make a full video out of yet.
Mind you. We will be doing in ‘25 for sure!
