A browser-based maritime route planner that calculates distances and ETAs while mapping canals, straits, piracy areas, environmental zones, and ocean currents.

Why it surfaced

NaviBoss turns a departure port and an arrival port into a route built around real shipping lanes, then lets users block more than 900 canals and straits, compare alternatives, and see the miles spent inside security and environmental zones. It also offers current-optimized routing from Copernicus data and export to ECDIS, giving this unusually specific tool a clear operational shape.

Ham Is Specifically Discouraged

August 10’s newborn domains include a mock cryptid council that specifically discourages ham, a vintage phone collecting messages for Twyla’s 70th, a 4.5-meter dish measuring Galactic hydrogen at 1420 MHz, and an open index that found 530 sites permitting GPTBot in robots.txt while refusing it at the server.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-10 Domain Arrivals issue.
