The application is free and available on Google Play. It has six features that will definitely make travelling and cruising around the Masurian lakes easier.

Portuj.pl

A modest but very interesting application. From it we will learn what course to take to new ports, what awaits us there, what are the costs of mooring, etc. In addition, the program allows you to easily contact the petty officer of the port. One of the functions worth becoming friends with is the option of planning the route of the voyage (potential costs are also included). And if you discover an unregistered port, you can add it to the app yourself.

Navionics

An award-winning app that will allow us to plot our route along the sea lanes. It works perfectly as a navigation tool. The sea maps in the application are extensive and provide information such as the occurrence of depths and reefs, lighthouses and ports. The application has a weather related package, extended with data on sea currents etc.

MySea

An interactive guide to the southern countries: Greece, Croatia and Turkey. It allows you to book berths and check prices, verify information about the area, read reviews of other users about the place, create your own list of places you recommend and would like to visit.

Anchor Alarm

An application focusing on the issue of safe anchoring. It informs us about possible weather changes in the place where we want to drop anchor. This is especially important news when we consider that the yacht is not a stable dwelling or a vehicle that no force can move, but a structure dependent on the whims of weather.

We have gathered for you 3 useful applications for your phone that you should have while sailing. 🙂
