Boats became computers. Nobody handed sailors the manual. We're building the app that fixes that — weather routing and boat management, whole boat, one place. Beta's on the water; launch soon. ⚓
There's a forum inside Yachtara, and it's quiet enough that you'll actually get an answer.
Boards for passages and destinations, weather and seamanship, life aboard, gear, engines and electrics.
Tell us what you sail and where it is right now.

Two forecast models. Same sea area. One says 18 knots by Thursday afternoon, the other says 25 and six hours earlier.
The instinct is to pick the one you like. Better instinct: treat the disagreement as the forecast.
Look at the spread before you look at the number.

The jobs nobody remembers until the boat is out of the water:
— The impeller. It was fine last season, which is exactly the problem.
— Anodes on shaft and rudder, not just the hull one you can see.
Write them down somewhere that reminds you.

What happens to a system when nobody's standing next to it?
On a long passage you can't reach the thing. Can't reboot it from the dock. Whatever it does at 4am, three hundred miles out, it does alone.
That's how Yachtara was built.

Most boats live in five places. Weather in one app. Maintenance in a notebook. Manuals on a laptop that never comes aboard.
None of it is hard. Scattered is what fails at 3am.

Tap anywhere on the water and the tide comes back: the height now, the curve for the days ahead, the next high and the next low.
Enough to plan a day around. For estuaries and harbour entry, the official tables still rule.
