The Technology Behind YachtPilot: How It Works

YachtPilot connects to your vessel's NMEA 2000 Backbone, collecting data from your boat’s instruments, and displaying it via web or mobile app. The setup is quick and seamless, integrating directly into your boat’s existing network.

YachtPilot continuously gathers real-time data from your NMEA 2000 system. This information is displayed on your dashboard for easy monitoring. You can customize alerts to track key systems like wind speed, water depth, and engine runs. Set specific thresholds, receive instant notifications, and secure your data with multi-factor authentication (MFA). With YachtPilot, you can confidently manage your boat's safety and performance.


Customisable Monitoring and Alerts

YachtPilot gives you complete control over the data you track. Select which instruments to monitor, including the bilge pump, engine, or water depth. Customize your alerts to fit your exact needs. Set thresholds for wind strength, water depth, or engine hours, and be instantly notified when conditions change. Whether you want to avoid shallow waters or geofence protected areas, YachtPilot keeps you informed.


Real-Time Data and Control

YachtPilot provides real-time data, ensuring you're always in control of your boat. Monitor your dashboard anytime, anywhere through the web or mobile app. Tailor your dashboard to display the most important data to you. Whether it's engine performance or environmental conditions, you have complete flexibility in what you see. Stay connected, even miles away from your vessel.


Secure, Reliable and Easy to Use

Your boat’s data is protected with multi-factor authentication (MFA), safeguarding your information from unauthorized access. YachtPilot’s setup is simple and secure, making it accessible to any boater. Connecting to your NMEA 2000 backbone is quick, and the system integrates seamlessly. Designed for sailors who prioritize both security and convenience, YachtPilot ensures peace of mind no matter where your adventures take you.
