Savvy Navvy: Boat Navigation

Savvy Navvy combines marine charts, estimated routes and supported weather/tide layers.

Our take

Consider only as one part of competent passage planning

Departure comparisons can highlight changing modeled conditions.

Keep in mind: Routes, AIS coverage and chart accuracy cannot guarantee safe passage or collision avoidance; maintain required charts, lookout and independent checks.

What you can do

  • Plan supported routes and ETAs
  • Inspect eligible weather and tide layers
  • Track GPS or sync entitled routes

Good for

  • Boaters independently verifying navigation information

Consider alternatives for

  • Users replacing seamanship and official notices with an app

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.0.
  • Routes, AIS coverage and chart accuracy cannot guarantee safe passage or collision avoidance; maintain required charts, lookout and independent checks.

Privacy & permissions

Routes and fishing/anchorage positions are sensitive; restrict sync and sharing.
