Effortless capture

Press record. Your sailing logbook fills itself.

SailTies tracks the passage while you sail it: distance, duration, speed and the conditions you had. Add crew, add photos as you go, and it's filed by the time you're tied up.

“It's become a routine to start SailTies as soon as I start rigging the boat.”

The SailTies app tracking a live passage across the Solent, showing duration, distance, speed over ground and course, with crew positions on the map.

The record

Every sailing trip, logged and worth looking at again.

Every voyage keeps its map, its photos, the anchorage you'd go back to and the people who were aboard. Replay the passage, share a postcard from the day, or scroll back through a whole season.

“It is such a great bank of memories from sailing.”

A saved SailTies voyage called Crossing the bay: the track from Vancouver to Gibsons with photos pinned along it, 26 nautical miles in 7 hours 41 minutes aboard Lady Katarina.

People

Sailing is better with people in it.

Add crew to a voyage and they get their miles too. Start a group for your club or your regular crew, see where friends have been sailing, and find sailors near you.

“It's become a routine to start SailTies as soon as I start rigging the boat.”

Sailors kept asking where to sail next. Meet our sailing trips.

So we built SailTies Adventures, a curated selection of sailing trips, chosen by us, that we'd want to go on ourselves. Training weeks, expeditions, races, cruises and holidays, run by operators we know and trust.

Book a berth rather than the whole boat. No crew to assemble, no yacht to charter.

About us

Our mission is to make it easier to go sailing.

SailTies was founded by Chris and Tom, two RYA-qualified sailors in the UK. One of us is a designer, the other a developer, and our shared passion for sailing led us to build the modern sailing logbook.

A small, lean team, working tirelessly to make the best app for sailors.
