GlobeSailor Crew Navigate with confidence

Sailing is a real passion for people all around the globe. To enjoy those perfect moments on the water and to get the most out of your charter, you need to be well prepared and have all the tools ready to find your way around whilst at sea.

When you book a charter with us, you get a free elite subscription to the Savvy Navvy app for two months!

What is Savvy Navvy?

Savvy Navy is Google Maps for boats. This mobile application gives you all the essential information for your bareboat charter escapades. It'll be your greatest ally out on the water as it gives you real-time updates on charts, weather, and tides. It even provides you ETAs based on weather and tidal data, chart details and boat settings! Savvy Navvy is the only navigation app you'll need while sailing. So what kind of features does it have?

Boat GPS Positioning Mode

Use it to instantly see your location, the marine chart, as well as your course and speed over the ground. Intelligent GPS active tracking instantly shows your live position, as well as the distance between your boat and key features and landmarks around you.

Marine Weather Forecasts & Wind Map

You can pin a location anywhere on your Savvy Navvy map to see the weather conditions, forecasted temperatures and expected wind strength. The weather graph allows you to track weather changes throughout the day, and the detailed wind direction map gives you information for every location on earth.

Tidal Data Tables

These tables provide local and current data from over 8,000 tide stations around the world. They also make it easy to observe high and low tides. An absolute must for any sailor!

Fuel Consumption Monitoring

The application also allows you to estimate your fuel consumption according to the speed of your boat and estimated fuel efficiency. Adjust the parameters and relax while you're out on the water!

Route Planning

Define your start and end location and the Savvy Navvy algorithm does the rest. You'll get the optimum route with a quick and easy estimation of distance, the best departure time, fuel requirements and your ETA. A bonus: you can easily share your route with your friends!

Savvy Navvy will transform your holidays out on the water, and lets you turn the stress of planning into a hassle-free experience. Don't miss out on the special offer available now when you book with The Globesailor.

Anticipate your travels, prepare your kits ahead of time using either bags or equipment made from recycled materials. In terms of creams and products, watch out for microplastics (polyethylene) or metals (zinc) which can impact marine life if they end up in the water. Avoid single use products (wipes), favour big 5L bottles that you can use to fill up reusable bottles, borrow or buy second hand equip
