Think all charts are the same? Not quite, and here’s why…

Different marine authorities often have overlapping or conflicting data on the same stretch of water, making truly reliable navigation harder than it should be.

So we built a smarter way to bring it all together.

Our geospatial data pipeline creates more consistent, dependable chart coverage, even in areas where official surveys are limited.

The result? More confidence on the water, wherever you sail.

CarPlay changed the face of car navigation over a decade ago. Today we brought that same innovative technology to boating.

Savvy Navvy for CarPlay is now live for boaters worldwide, making us the first marine navigation app to offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.

Your charts, smart routing, and nav mode can now sit on the same screen as your music and calls, with no second display to buy and nothing new to learn.

Plan your route at home, step aboard, and it's already waiting at the helm.

We're launching it as part of a new partnership with Crest Pontoon Boats and Balise Pontoon Boats, MasterCraft Boat Company's premier pontoon brands, who are the first boat builders to fit it straight into the helm.

It arrives factory-fitted on all new 2027 Balise and Crest Conquest and Caribbean models launching next month.

Would having charts and music on one screen change how you plan a day on the water?
