72-Hour Corridor, INTELS And Full Voyage Context

SailingKSF Weather Intelligence

A dedicated weather-intelligence view for passage decisions: what is coming, where it is safer, and how the boat is actually progressing.

Suite OverviewSafety + AI

Weather Corridor Next 72 Hours

  • Forward corridor views focused on the next 72 hours.
  • Route alternatives with risk and comfort cues.
  • Highlights sectors where wind and sea overlap in unfavorable ways.
  • Supports tactical updates as fresh forecast bundles arrive.

INTELS Layer

  • INTELS summarize tactical signals in skipper-readable language.
  • They are useful during offshore watch changes and strategic handoff moments.
  • The goal is to reduce analysis overload when tired.
  • They can be combined with the corridor view and local hazard view.
  • INTELS can include pressure-drop plus gust and shift convergence signals for earlier squall-probability awareness.

Full Tracking And Logging

  • Weather context is tracked across the full passage timeline.
  • Position and movement history are tied to tactical decisions.
  • Boat-status logs are aligned with route and mode changes.
  • This is useful for debrief, optimization and incident review.
  • Automatic periodic pings to SailingKSF include current position, heading, weather and sea state for live context.
  • Dedicated follow pages are available so supporters and family can monitor voyage progress.

Operational Value

  • Shows whether performance loss is more likely sail trim, sea state or weather-window timing.
  • Supports safer go/no-go and reroute decisions.
  • Improves confidence for singlehanded long-range planning.
  • Creates an evidence trail for each tactical choice.
  • Shares corridor, INTELS and hazard data locally through JSON APIs to other onboard systems.

More Features Across The Suite

Current page focus: 72-hour corridors, INTELS, and full voyage-context tracking.

The suite is much broader than a traditional autopilot. It is a complete singlehanded offshore assistance stack covering steering, weather intelligence, safety sensing, logging and post-passage analysis.

Adaptive anti-hunt steering tuned to real sea motion
Standard NMEA2000 interoperability plus a private high-speed NMEA core exchange
Cross-vendor NMEA2000 compatibility with Raymarine, Garmin, Simrad and more
Maneuver-aware route behavior with avoid-and-resume workflow
AI prevention layer for broach, surf and pitchpole tendency
WORK mode for high-workload deck and sail operations
AI sail recommendations for fore/main trim and reefing stability
Hazard diagnostics with recovery counters and reason traces
Onboard and cloud weather fusion with deterministic offline fallback
72-hour weather-corridor planning and INTELS tactical context
Track and voyage logging for weather, position and boat-status history
Owner-performance polar review on iPad and server, with same-condition better/worse comparison
Local Weather Box JSON export for weather, INTELS, corridor and wide-area hazard feeds
Automatic periodic SailingKSF reporting with position, heading, weather and sea state
Dedicated supporter and family follow pages with live voyage context
Automatic local track logging every 10 minutes while underway, with export for analysis
Emergency 1/2/3 escalation with automatic shore updates and SMS/email contact alerts
AIS/RADAR warning and alarm workflow across helm, iPad and voice
Pressure-trend plus gust/shift fusion for earlier squall warnings, especially at night
Voice alarms and structured escalation for fatigue-resistant awareness
Sensor safety integration for lightning, gas, fire and air quality
Configurable 4x analog + 8x digital protected inputs with relay and voice actions
Native iPad workflow for routes, waypoints and tactical map use
Roadmap: dual bow and aft cameras for incoming-wave prediction support

Feedback And Comments

This project is still work in progress, and I would genuinely like feedback on what is missing, what feels unclear, and what would be most useful offshore. The first sea trial is planned for spring 2026, and every comment is reviewed by me before it appears publicly.

Comments do not appear immediately. I review and approve them manually before anything is published on the site. Please avoid posting private contact details that should not be visible on the web.

No public comments yet. You can be the first to add feedback.

Built For Singlehanded Offshore Reality

These public pages focus on what the suite actually delivers offshore: steadier steering, fail-safe automation, and practical AI support that reduces workload without taking control away from the skipper.
