Wavve Boating Launches Free Nautical Chart Viewer
Wavve Boating has launched a free, browser-based nautical chart viewer that allows boaters to explore waterways, view marine charts, and plan routes without needing to download an app or pay for a subscription. The tool offers coverage across the U.S., Canada, the U.K and Australia, with more locations coming soon. Users can manually plot routes or use an auto-routing feature, and Wavve Boating members can sync routes to their mobile app for navigation. The launch comes as the marine industry faces a 9% decline in boat sales in 2024, emphasizing the need to improve boater experiences. CEO Adam Allore says the new tool supports Wavve’s mission to make boating easier and boost industry retention. Read the full release at Yachts and Yachting.
