Core Functions
- Start, pause, reset and restart watch timers.
- Snooze windows with a visible countdown.
- Alarm acknowledgement with clear state transitions.
- Fast commands from both the helm UI and the iPad app.
Sleep Rhythm, Alerts and Operator Acknowledgement
Timer and Watchkeeper Module
Designed to help a solo skipper rest without ever losing touch with the state of the boat.
Safety Rhythm
- A predictable alert cadence reduces missed alarms.
- Timer ownership and command feedback stay visible.
- The flow is designed to minimize false confidence during short sleep cycles.
- It integrates with voice alarms for critical escalation.

More Features Across The Suite
Current page focus: Watchkeeping rhythm and alert discipline.
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

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.
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.
