- For
- Small-boat skippers planning coastal or lake routes
- Worth noticing
- An overdue alert is described as notifying a shore contact; the app explicitly says it does not call the Coast Guard.
Field notes
Route setup can start from a preset, a chart-drawn route, or a GPX/KML import. The page says fuel estimates use a boat model, cruise speed, and a known burn reading, with a third of fuel held in reserve for the round trip. It also describes an overdue workflow that sends a shore contact the boat’s last fix and track link; the contact, rather than the app, is responsible for calling the Coast Guard.
