Savvy Navvy app described as ‘Google Maps for boaters’
Savvy Navvy was created by former Google software engineer and avid sailor Jelte Liebrand who wanted to bring an all-in-one navigation solution to the market, enabling more boaters to confidently and safely enjoy their time out on the water.
Με περισσότερους από 415.000 χρήστες σκαφών για πρώτη φορά να εισέρχονται στην αγορά των ΗΠΑ κάθε χρόνο υπάρχει μια αυξανόμενη ευκαιρία και πιθανή ανάγκη να παρασχεθεί στους νέους βαρκάρηδες αυξημένη εμπιστοσύνη για να βγουν στο νερό με ασφάλεια.
Furthermore, a huge amount of time and effort is spent on navigation, with some of Savvy Navvy’s initial findings showing a third of boaters typically using multiple apps and spending up to two hours on navigation each day during their trip. Experiencing this complexity himself mid-Pacific during the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, is what gave Jelte Liebrand the idea for the Savvy Navvy app, which he launched with co-founder Kevin O’Neill in 2017.
Η εμπιστοσύνη στη βρετανική εταιρεία θαλάσσιας τεχνολογίας βρίσκεται σαφώς σε υψηλό επίπεδο όλων των εποχών, έχοντας μόλις συγκεντρώσει περισσότερα από 1.8M εκατομμύρια δολάρια μέσω της εκστρατείας πληθοχρηματοδότησης τον περασμένο μήνα, δείχνοντας τεράστιο ενδιαφέρον για την καινοτομία της ακμάζουσας αγοράς σκαφών που συνεχίζει να αναπτύσσεται ραγδαία μετά την πανδημία covid.
So, what is Savvy Navvy?
Liebrand explains: “Savvy Navvy is an app based solution and really is as simple as ‘Google Maps for boats’. Our vision from the outset has been for Savvy Navvy to be in every boater’s pocket, supporting both new and experienced boaters on the water. But we’ve actually now gone beyond that, supporting kayakers, paddleboarders and jet skiers. Our designers built Savvy charts™ from the ground up, using official NOAA hydrographic data, to show essential marine information with a clean and easy-to-view interface for safety and ease of use, enabling better and quicker navigation.

Ως μέρος της συνεχούς ανάπτυξής μας, το νέο μας δωρεάν πρόγραμμα θα δώσει σε οποιονδήποτε στο νερό, είτε πρόκειται για κωπηλάτη, καγιάκ ή κάποιον σε ένα γιοτ 50ft πρόσβαση στην πλατφόρμα μας. Αυτό το νέο δωρεάν πρόγραμμα συμπληρώνει τη δημοφιλή και πιο ολοκληρωμένη premium επιλογή μας, η οποία έχει δεκαπλασιαστεί μόνο τον τελευταίο χρόνο."

Understanding what the pain points are from our customers is absolutely critical and one of the reasons why we're so open, so transparent, so direct. If there's something that’s not quite working for someone, then we want to know about it, so we can address it. I think that's one of the biggest things that sets us apart from others is that we listen.
