Anchoring remains a daily practice, but it’s one that carries risks. There is a constant risk of an anchor dragging due to changing conditions or uncharted seabed, which can lead to potential collisions, grounding, or even the loss of a vessel. Anchor Alert was designed to address this challenge.
“Anchor Alert is built for essential peace of mind, and its seamless integration with the PredictWind DataHub truly sets it apart,” says Jon Bilger, PredictWind Founder. “This combination delivers unparalleled remote monitoring, a comprehensive real-time dashboard, and pinpoint N2K accuracy, ensuring you know instantly if your anchor moves to take action quickly and avoid danger.”
Key Features of Anchor Alert:
The Anchor Alert app offers real-time monitoring and immediate alerts to safeguard vessels and crew. It leverages precise GPS positioning to continuously track a boat’s location relative to its anchor point, allowing users to set a customizable alarm radius and receive audible and visual alerts if the vessel moves beyond this boundary.
Anchor Alert offers essential monitoring capabilities as a free download, including real-time alerts for anchor drag and swing, a basic dashboard, weather forecasts, and access to local knowledge. For boaters seeking enhanced functionality and ultimate control, Anchor Alert Pro unlocks comprehensive features:
Anchor Alert is now available for download on iOS, accessible to all boaters looking to enhance their safety and enjoy their time on the water with greater confidence. The basic version is free, and Anchor Alert Pro is available for USD $99 / year, with monthly or quarterly subscriptions available.
