SailorsLog

Your Logbook, Beautifully Kept

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad

Capture the spirit of your voyage, even miles offshore. SailorsLog is the digital logbook designed specifically for the modern cruiser. Whether you are crossing oceans on satellite internet or island-hopping with sporadic connectivity, your entries are saved instantly on your device and synced intelligently when you are back online. OFFLINE-FIRST, ALWAYS RELIABLE Write detailed passage notes, log weather conditions, track engine hours, and document your crew—all without an internet connection. SailorsLog is "Local-First," meaning your data is stored safely on your device the moment you type it. You will never lose your thoughts to a dropped signal. BUILT FOR SATELLITE BANDWIDTH We know data at sea is expensive. SailorsLog uses a "Satellite-First" sync architecture. Text entries sync instantly using minimal data, while heavy photos and GPX tracks wait for Wi-Fi or your explicit command. You stay in control of your bandwidth. TURN DATA INTO A STORY • Rich Media: Add photos to every entry. The app automatically extracts coordinates from EXIF data to pin them to your map. • GPX Visualization: Import tracks from your chartplotter to visualize your route alongside your narrative. • Postcards: Generate beautiful, magazine-style images of your ship or daily log to share on social media with a single tap. SEAMLESS SYNC & BACKUP Start a log entry on your iPad at the chart table, then finish it on your iPhone in your bunk. SailorsLog uses intelligent field-level conflict resolution to merge edits from multiple devices without overwriting data—even if you edited them while offline. LOGBOOK, NOT A TRACKER SailorsLog allows you to import GPX tracks from your chartplotter to visualize your route, or capture single-point coordinates for departure and arrival. It is designed to be battery-efficient and does not record background GPS tracks. DARK MODE READY Fully supports iOS Dark Mode, making it easy on the eyes during night watches or in low-light cabins. FREE TO START, PREMIUM TO PROTECT SailorsLog allows you to log your first 10 entries completely free—perfect for a weekend trip or a week-long charter. No account required to start. Upgrade to Skipper to unlock the full experience: • Unlimited Entries: Log as many voyages as you want. • Cloud Sync & Backup: Keep your logbook safe across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. • Family Sharing: One subscription covers your whole crew. • Professional Sharing: Remove "Free Edition" watermarks from shared Postcards. • Automatic Downloads: Seamlessly fetch full-resolution assets on Wi-Fi. BUILT BY SAILORS Created by offshore cruisers, every feature solves a real problem faced at sea: bandwidth limitations, device synchronization, and the need to document the adventure. SUBSCRIPTION This app offers an auto-renewable yearly subscription (Skipper). Subscription automatically renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
