DIGITAL YACHT NEW PRODUCTS FOR THE OCEAN POSSE presented by Nicholas Heyes Digital Yacht Ltd www.digitalyacht.co.uk Nick and Captain discussed their experiences in Panama and the recreational boating industry there. Digital from Digital Yacht presented new concepts and products, including Nordlink, One Fix, and a new maneuverable product, and discussed the integration of various technologies into their maritime platform. Nick presented new products, including a GPS system, a man-overboard solution, and a synthetic position report, and offered a 20% discount for the " Posse" team. Next steps - Digital Yacht to launch new products at Dusseldorf Boat Show and Miami Boat Show in February. - Ocean Posse members to use coupon code "posse20" for 20% discount on Digital Yacht products. - Digital Yacht to make the Nord Cloud platform available for third-party app developers. - Captain to distribute the recorded meeting to Ocean Posse participants. - Digital Yacht to ensure the "posse20" coupon code is working on their websites by early next week. New Cloud Concepts and Feedback In the meeting, Digital from Digital Yacht presented some new concepts and ideas for the cloud, which had not yet been launched. The presentation was intended to gather feedback and ideas from the participants. Captain recorded the presentation and made it available to the participants. The presentation was expected to last around 15-20 minutes. Introducing Nordlink and New Products Digital introduced three new products: Nordlink, a gateway to connect boat data to the cloud; One Fix, a GPS product addressing signal interference issues; and a new manoverable product. Nordlink is a small box that connects to any NMEA 2000 system, sending data to the Nild Cloud, which can include engine, AIS, position, depth, wind, and tank data. The box is low-cost and comes with a free app for configuration and a basic free account for viewing the boat's position and core navigation data. The Nild Cloud enables applications for monitoring, alerting, control, and historical analysis. Digital also mentioned a partnership with VM, a New York startup founded by the original founder of MongoDB. Integrating Tech for Maritime Efficiency Digital discussed the integration of various technologies, including the Internet of Things, robotics, and AI, into their maritime platform. They highlighted the collaboration with a significant technology business, which has been helpful in standardizing NMEA 2000 data and incorporating low-cost sensors. Digital also introduced a new app called Anchor Smart, which uses AI and cloud technology to monitor and alert users about potential boat dragging and weather changes. The app is designed to provide a more efficient and accurate anchoring experience. New Technologies and GNSS Integration Digital discussed the integration of new technologies into their platform, including a product called Boat Vault that logs and stores data for boats. They also introduced a new GNSS product that operates with GPS, Galileo, Beidu, and NavIC, offering sub-meter accuracy and fast updates. The new device is designed to be more resistant to interference and can block certain satellite constellations for comparison. Digital encouraged third-party app development and expressed excitement for the upcoming launch of their cloud platform at Miami. New Products for Boats and MOB Digital discussed new products for boats, including a high precision GPS/GNSS product that connects to various systems and offers voyage data recording. They also introduced a man overboard (MOB) product called MOB Alert, which connects to the boat's NMEA 2000 network and synthesizes the MOB beacon alert. This product is more affordable than traditional MOB beacons and can be used in conjunction with AIS targets. Digital also mentioned the possibility of adding extra switches for larger boats and using the outboard kill cord switch as a method of activating the manual report alarm. New Products and Upcoming Shows Nick from DigitalYourAmerica.com presented new products to the team, including a GPS system, a man-overboard solution, and a synthetic position report. He encouraged feedback and mentioned upcoming shows in Dusseldorf and Miami. He also offered a 20% discount on these products for the "Panama Posse" team. The team expressed enthusiasm for the products, particularly the GPS and man-overboard solutions, and planned to share the information with others.
