Who are savvy navvy?


savvy navvy is the ultimate boating app which has been specially designed by experienced mariners to make navigating easy. It's been said that a third of sailors typically use more than four different apps on their phones when planning a trip, from plotting routes to checking tidal data and weather forecasts. The creators of savvy navvy have heard and felt your frustrations with having to navigate between multiple apps to source the relevant information needed prior to sailing. That's why they've created this tool so you can simply drop a pin and work out the best route in seconds.

So what makes savvy navvy different to other boating apps you have? They've combined the features many sailors find most important into one easy-to-use app.

Purchasing an annual subscription can see you receiving features such as navigational charts, tidal data from over 8,000 stations around the world and detailed weather forecasts which show changing wind speed and direction. Plot your destination in 3 taps and the app will provide you with the best route based on departure time, weather and tide data. Phone screen too small? No problem, you can export your route data and it use in conjunction with a chart plotter.

There are many more incredible features to discover inside the app. Find all up to date marina and anchorage information, including their amenities, number of berths and contact information. You'll have a dedicated customer support team on-call to help you use the app should you need advice.

That's not all! savvy navvy can also calculate your fuel consumption based on boat engine speed and fuel efficiency whilst out to sea. This is particularly beneficial for motorboat users! For more information on what this app has to offer, visit their website.
