    App Description

    Skippers Log is your digital logbook for your yacht.
    Everything you can do in a good old fashioned paper logbook you can do here:
    - Create multiple trips for multiple ships
    - Record daily navigational data and weather observations
    - Include navigational live data from a wireless NMEA server
    - Automatic log entries based on the specifications you make (course change, wind change, ...)
    - Plot your trip on Apple map or Navionics map (active Navionics subscription required)
    - Print your trip with maps as a PDF
    - Create crew lists and print them
    - AIS targets shown on map (data from AIS receiver required)
    - Synchronize between you devices through iCloud
    - Display various data fields from NMEA data as overlay on your map
    - Fuel, water, cooking gas and outboard fuel consumption can be recorded
    - Take and add pictures to any day in the logbook (Premium version only)
    - Automatic geotag your position like e.g. "1.6 nm NW of Cape Finisterre"
    - Automatic download GMDSS and DWD weather forecasts (Euriope only, premium only)
    - Handling daily checklist (premium only)
    The free version of this app is limited to 1 ship, 1 trip and 40 manual log entries. Enough for a one or two week charter trip. No NMEA data are processed in the free app.
    In app purchase for the premium version and a 14-day free trial of the premium version.
    Please note, that the app will principally run on WiFi only iPads, but it is quite limited on these devices. Even if you use NMEA as your location source, automatic logging and track recording will likely reliably only happen while the app is in the foreground. You can still do manual entries, of course. To unleash the full potential you need a device with a gps receiver.

    The barometer will now work again in iOS 17.4 and later. Because of privacy changes in iOS 17.4 barometric data are bow tied to Motion and Fitness. In order to make it work you have to enable Fitnesstracking in your devices privacy settings under "Motion and Fitness". After restarting Skipperslog you have to go there again and enable Skipperslog, which will now have its own entry there, to access the data.

    Update Log

    - Boats with two engines can now stop and start each engine individually. For these ships there are now two engine buttons in the log entry. This works for automatic start and stop via the NMEA interface as well. If your port and starboard engine seem to be switched you have to switch the engine numbers in the NMEA settings.
    - When entering a new fuel consumption record, the engine hours will be preset with your current engine hours according to your most recent log entry. With two engines the hours of the two engines are added up and the sum is used.

    The logbook for your yacht

    Update Log

    You can now enter engine hours and rpm for two engines. You have to set the number of engines to two in the ship data page.
    Ships with two engines will always use the alternate calculation for engine hours, regardless of the actual setting of that option.
    Clicking on the engine hours or rpm in a log entry will now open a new window for two engine ships, where you can enter the data. The actual fields in the log entry are now no longer editable if you are using two engines.
    While using the NMEA interface to automatically detect if you are running under power or not now requires both engines to be stopped to register as not longer running under power.
