A fantastic few days spent up in Opua with Island Cruising NZ and the Pacific Rally participants! Great discussion surrounding the benefits of using satellite imagery in addition to traditional charting. It’s always a pleasure working with Viki and was great to show off Scout and let people see the benefits in person. Thanks everyone who came!

With all pre-orders dispatched last week, it is so exciting to start seeing Scout in use out in the wild. Thanks for this awesome shot 📸 SV Beech House!

Yesterday, all our Scout pre-orders were sent out to their new homes! It’s an amazing moment when months of incredibly hard work and passion lead to the surreal experience of watching our first batch of Scout tablets leave us.
Years of firsthand experience on board all sorts of vessels have led to what we can only describe as the ultimate sailing companion. We can’t wait for our customers to put Scout to the test!

The first batch of Scout tablets is almost gone, with just 3 units remaining for early April delivery.
If you’ve been thinking about it, this is the moment. Next deliveries will be late April.
