Description
SafePilot is the new generation of professional maritime piloting software from Trelleborg. It is designed by a dedicated group of software developers and active maritime pilots. The result is an exceptionally user friendly maritime piloting software.
General highlights:
· Intelligent Multilayer Chart Handling - Designed with a dedicated
kernel with intelligent chart handling allowing multiple
layers such as depths, buoys, symbols, etc.
· General Data - Providing all relevant navigational data as heading,
speed, course over ground and turn rate in proper resolution. Chart
display with multiple orientations. S-57 and S-63 Charts supported.
· Vessel Database – Maintain a list of previous piloted vessels for
quick upload of actual vessel particulars as well as easy logging of handled vessels.
· Day/Dusk/Night Screen - Option to shift to dusk or night screen with muting of all
colours.
Planning mode:
· Planning Tool – Easy construction and planning of routes and fender
lines with vast possibilities of editing, storing and selecting with
different options.
· Route Tool & Database – A Route Directory makes selection of
pre-defined routes very easy. Handling of the selected route includes
create, name, save or delete route. Additionally, you are able to add,
move, delete or name waypoints.
· Distance Lines – Flexible distance lines can be created
anywhere on the chart. During navigation you will automatically
get the distance to the nearest point of the vessel when in vicinity
of a distance line.
· Annotations – Create annotations in the chart to add points, lines,
or areas, and add a textual note to each annotation. In navigation
you may recall the textual note on the annotation.
Navigation mode:
· Graphical illustration of vessel position compared to route with
information of ETA to destination as well as ETA, bearing and distance
to each waypoint and cross track distance to leg line.
· AIS Data (requires a portable piloting unit) - Real-time graphical
illustration of all vessels incl. data in your area.
· Prediction - Calculation and graphical indication of your vessel’s
future position with adjustable time frames and a number of ghost shapes (foot prints).
· Motion Vectors - Automatically displaying motion vectors fore and aft
of your vessel if in turn or at low speed. At speed or on
steady course one centre motion vector is displayed.
· Follow Ship - Ensures that your vessel always is within the screen.
· Head up - Follows the ship and keeps display head up.
· Past Track - Showing the already covered path of the vessel.
· Distance Lines – Flexible distance lines can be created
and edited anywhere on the chart. During navigation you will
automatically get the distance to the nearest point of the vessel
when in vicinity of a distance line.
· Replay and Recording - Replay function of previous passages
Note:
The basic version is for internal GPS usage only (cellular iPad Mini Retina, cellular iPad version 3 or newer).
For external GPS or AIS device support the Pro Navigation module is required. Please see our web page for possibilities.
Only Trelleborg's own range of external GPS receivers is supported in the SafePilot Pro version.
Support for AD Navigation's GPS hardware is possible with the AD Navigation module.

Ratings and Reviews
Great for Piloting
Excellent tool for piloting.
Excellent
Cooperated closely with Marimatech to hone the app for our use at Harwich... works very well. Marimatech brought out timely updates to improve features/ address any issues arising.
Things I’d like to see in future updates
Improved night and dusk display - they are useless because they aren’t clear enough. I currently always use day mode with the dimmer turned right down.
Automatic Meeting points only selecting moving (or with AIS status set to underway) targets, rather than every vessel regardless of their location.
More navigational features such as range and bearing measuring devices that are independent of ships position.
Ability to view all data from all legs on a route plan including courses and distances in a table, rather than just displaying the lines and the next course.
Having a ‘waypoint bank’ to select frequently used waypoints to add to a route.
Ability to create a passage plan/route in table form, and ability to add/edit/view notes to certain waypoints in the table, such as reporting points.
Better visibility on the clock, sometimes it’s almost completely invisible due to the White colour on a white background. Just make it bold black, on day mode, and bold white on night mode.
Battery percentage symbol next to the battery level indicator.
Lines on vectors to show minutes.
Slightly thicker heading line
Ability to interrogate chart features such as buoys, beacons, light sectors.
Full length leading light sector (or user adjustable length) lines.
Anchorage/spoil ground names/numbers.
Take the best features that you see on approved ECDIS systems, and even from SeaIQ, which has much better chart visibility than current SafePilot.
Thanks for reading!
