Description

GPS coordinates of the man overboard position and exact compass course towards it right on your wrist.

There is nothing more dangerous in sailing than a man overboard (MOB). According to statistics, only 17 - 25% of MOB cases are successfully accomplished. We hope that our app will help to increase the chances of rescue. At any time and in any weather conditions it will give you the precise directions to the
MOB position, helping you to rescue a person.
Should a man accidentally fall overboard, immediately mark the GPS position on your wrist watch without losing sight of the person. From that moment, the MOB position and exact compass course towards it will always be available at a glance.
Head directly to the person overboard with the in-app MOB RADAR; you are on the right course when the RADAR turns green and the MOB icon appears in the highlighted sector. You can rely on the app when performing a single-handed MOB procedure and also when sailing on vessels not equipped with a built-in MOB button.

Application features:
• save the precise GPS position of the MOB event
• use clever MOB RADAR to head directly to the MOB position. Apple Watch series 5 and 6 only.
• save the event time
• display the distance to the MOB event
• display the direction to the MOB event (visually on RADAR and compass course). Apple Watch series 5 and 6 only.
• display the elapsed time
Whether you are a skipper or crew member; it does not matter, the app benefits everyone. Simply add the MOB Assistant complication to your Watch Face before casting off.
Fair Winds and Following Seas!
Important! Please run the application after installation to enable location services and compass calibration. Thus, in case of an emergency, you will be ready to go immediately.
Attention! In critical situations, follow standard procedures or the captain's direct orders. The application is intended to be used as an auxiliary service.

Works good and could be quite useful

I've set up direct access by configuring the Apple Watch face complication. Tested in a simulation with various floating objects and it is quite precise, it certainly does not replace the official methods, but it can be helpful.

Mastering mob procedures

Can’t tell abut real situation but the app is quite handy in mastering man-overboard procedure. Especially clear how initial position of a fender defer over time due to current and wind influence.
