A boat her owner knows. Even from ashore.
Digital Vessel connects the systems and instruments already fitted and hands them back as one picture, at the helm and on a phone. For the owner, that means less to puzzle out at the helm, more peace of mind at the berth, and the last word always in their hands.
Plenty of instruments, nobody joining them up
The plotter shows the course, the engine display revs, consumption and temperatures, the power panel voltage and state of charge. Each tells its own part of the story, and putting them together is left to whoever's aboard, usually at the worst moment: at night, in heavy weather, with an alarm going and three screens to compare. Digital Vessel interprets the data from the existing installation, puts it in context and makes it readable in one clear, consistent view.
Underway: less to decipher, more time to decide
Anomalies explained in context
An anomaly arrives with what's needed to understand it (which system, since when, which other readings are linked) rather than a number on a screen.
Routes and weather in one view
Charts, forecasts, tides and currents sit in a single experience. Weather routing suggests passages suited to the conditions and the parameters set; the choice stays with the skipper.
Range under control
The system estimates the fuel and battery range left based on the passage ahead and actual consumption, and keeps updating it along the way. It's a valuable planning aid for whoever's at the helm, not a guarantee.
An interface that follows the situation
Underway, course and propulsion stay up front; manoeuvring, the cameras and proximity sensors; at anchor, the anchor watch, tanks and power.
When no one's aboard
A watch at the berth and in winter storage
Bilge, batteries, shore power and access stay watched even when the boat sits idle for weeks. If something changes, the alert reaches the owner's phone.
Ready on arrival
From the app, the owner can check the boat's condition and bring the air conditioning up before stepping aboard, when there's power to spare.
Service turns up prepared
With the owner's permission, the chosen yard or service centre gets the context of an anomaly and can come aboard already knowing what to look for.
A boat that keeps her history
Maintenance, repairs, documents and usage data build up in a digitally signed record that nobody can alter after the fact without it showing. When it comes to selling, it can help show how the boat has been kept. Manuals, certificates and technical sheets stay in one archive, always to hand.
The owner stays in control
Every automation can be overridden by hand. The owner decides who sees what (yard, service, crew) and presence detection can be switched off cabin by cabin, to respect guests' privacy. No boat exposes a public IP address to the internet, and data is signed at source.
On the boat already in the water
Digital Vessel doesn't require the onboard electronics to be replaced. It's fitted at the yard, during a refit or scheduled maintenance, connecting to the systems already aboard. Compatibility is checked boat by boat, before any commitment.
Where we are, straight up
- todayThe system is fitted to three real boats and has been logging data underway since summer 2026.
- todayFirst two commercial installations under way since July 2026.
- in developmentSoftware platform evolving, dedicated hardware in design.
- comingInstallations on existing boats are assessed case by case, starting with a compatibility check.
