All of us who go to sea for pleasure go to have fun. Keeping safe is of prime importance and increases the enjoyment for everyone aboard, whatever their ability or age. We all know there are risks involved and that accidents can and do happen, whether you are racing across oceans or cruising in quiet coastal waters.
To avoid accidents happening in the first place or to prevent a bad situation becoming worse requires good training, a clear head and the ability to make decisions quickly.

Safe Skipper Reviews

Very functional and useful app for quick reference

Egomaniac47 on

United States

The app features different reference guides and checks/maneuvers essential to any sailboat skipper, novice or experienced. It’s always useful to have a digital reference guide to check prior to, during or after sailing. Recommend.

This app is stunning in its lack of usefulness

Hanson24 on

United States

This app offers a few paragraphs in total. The screenshots cover most of the book. Typical chapter is one paragraph of overview. I write technical books for a living and could have written this app in one hour.

Good quick reference

Loads of practical safety info and tips, prep, equipment, comms. Worth checking out.
