Binnen Skipper – Sailing app analytics for September 10

Binnen Skipper is your digital companion on five Bavarian lakes: Chiemsee, Lake Starnberg, Ammersee, Tegernsee and Großer Brombachsee. Made by sailors for real life on the water – prepared separately for every lake, clear and easy to use. “Chiemsee Skipper” is now “Binnen Skipper”: the app is free of charge, and your Chiemsee stays exactly as it was – with all trips and settings. If you bought the app before, please write to us via the feedback form in the app — we will unlock Pro for you. FREE OF CHARGE Safety costs nothing here. No purchase prompt sits on top of a running warning. • Nautical chart with your position – offline in the app, works without reception • Anchor watch with a loud alarm – guards the boat overnight • Man overboard: mark the position instantly or after the fact • Official severe-weather warnings from the German Weather Service and storm-warning-light alerts – for all five lakes • Emergency numbers, water rescue, distress signals and an emergency plan • Current weather, water level and water temperature • Harbours, moorings, slipways and crane spots, steamer piers and points of interest • Departure times at the steamer piers – refreshed weekly • Bearing to your destination and “nearest safe harbour” with heading • Right-of-way rules, nature and quiet zones – with a warning when you enter • Record trips – with distance, duration, speed, crew and notes, unlimited and kept • Backup and restore • The lake switch itself: all five lakes are free to use WITH PRO – ONE PAYMENT, NO SUBSCRIPTION • The whole logbook – open every trip, not just the three most recent • ICON-D2 and ICON-EU forecast models from the DWD in detail • Sailing window and wind alert – when the wind suits you today • All webcams – see what it really looks like before you set off • Widgets on your home screen – water level, temperature, weather and camera • Trip insights and season totals – weather, distances, times • Water level and temperature over time, as a curve • Pass trips on – as GPX or as an image to share • Virtual regatta – set your own course, sail it, score it by Yardstick • Measure distances and plan a route • Several boats and a maintenance log • Photos on saved places The purchase covers all five lakes. ABOUT THE LOGBOOK, SO THERE IS NO MISUNDERSTANDING Everything is recorded and kept, without any limit. Without Pro you can open the three most recent trips; older ones stay visible in the list, with date, distance and duration, and carry a lock. The app never deletes trips by itself. SEVEN DAYS OF PRO TO TRY Once per device you can try the full feature set for a week – without payment details. It ends by itself, there is nothing to cancel. ALSO • Message history: read every warning and notice at your leisure • UV index with its own screen – today to the day after tomorrow, plus the week • Sun and moon times, regatta calendar with an entry in your calendar • A guided tour on first start – explains the lake switch and the widgets • Clubs, sailing schools and boatyards on the lake – marked on the chart • Wall of Fame: implemented suggestions and who brought them in • Fully in German and English, light and dark design • Freely selectable units (knots/km/h, nautical miles/km, °C/°F) Data sources: DWD/Bright Sky (weather and warnings), Open-Meteo (UV), GKD and HND Bavaria (water), map data © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). All content consists of simplified summaries for general information only. It does not replace official nautical charts, official navigation or your own seamanship – information may be inaccurate or incomplete.
