Everything on one chart

Route and wake in a single view.

The worldwide Apple base map is enriched with seamarks from OpenSeaMap. Your planned route appears in turquoise, the GPS track you actually sailed in green – clearly separated and instantly readable.

  • Seamarks from OpenSeaMap as a dedicated layer
  • Planned route and sailed track clearly distinguishable
  • Marinas and harbors via Apple MapKit

Chart tools

Set your course. Know your distance.

Drop multiple measurement points and Keelwake calculates the total distance as well as the course of the final segment. A line drawn between two harbors can be adopted directly as a new leg.

  • Multi-point measurement across any number of legs
  • Distance and true course
  • Use a drawn course directly as a leg

Prepared on board

Seamarks ahead. Position known.

Keelwake can preload the seamark tiles along a planned route and stores previously fetched tiles locally. The Apple base map itself is provided by MapKit and may still need a connection for new areas.

  • Preload seamarks along your route
  • Your own position right on the chart
  • GPS track even with the screen locked

For the big picture

A planning aid with clear limits.

Keelwake supports planning and documentation. It is not a substitute for official nautical charts or nautical publications.

Plan

See harbors, legs and total distance directly in context.

Record

The sailed track complements the planned route in the same chart view.

Orient

Position and seamarks for situational awareness – not a substitute for navigation.

Ready for the next tack.

Route, seamarks and wake – together with your logbook.
