Features

Everything your MFD already knows, finally legible.

Deckhand is a purpose-built layer on top of the telemetry already flowing through your helm. No new wiring, no new sensors — just software that listens.

01
SimradLowranceB&GNMEA 2000

Live engine dashboard

A rendering of your MFD's data stream you'd actually put on a coffee table. RPM, coolant, oil pressure, voltage, fuel flow, trim — every signal the NMEA 2000 bus is carrying, visualized without the 1994 aesthetic.

02
GPSBackgroundOffline-first

Auto trip capture

Engine on, GPS moving, Deckhand is already writing. Route, distance, max speed, fuel burned, engine hours logged, sea conditions attached. You never have to remember to hit start.

03
Hour-basedPredictive

Maintenance intelligence

Every major service item — impeller, oil & filter, zincs, belts, fuel filter, gear lube — tracked against real engine hours. Reminders fire before the interval, not after.

04
Captain tierPattern detection

Predictive advisories

Temperature creeping up across the last three trips? Voltage sagging on startup? Deckhand correlates patterns across your history and explains — in plain English — what's likely happening and what to do.

05
Captain tierExport

Resale readiness

Every service, every hour, every trip — exported as a buyer-facing report. The difference between a boat that sells for asking and one that sits on the broker's lot.

06
No hardwareGoFree

Works with what you own

Zero extra hardware. If your MFD speaks GoFree — and every Navico unit from 2015 forward does — Deckhand is already compatible.

Compatibility

If your helm is on this list, Deckhand works.

Deckhand speaks GoFree Tier 2 over Wi-Fi — the data interface shared across Navico's family of brands. Any unit roughly 2015 or newer is in scope.
