What is OnCourse? OnCourse is a navigation aid app for boating and sailing that helps users stay aware of the traffic around them, plan their voyages, and share their position with friends and family through the MarineTraffic Live Map. The app offers features such as collision detection and avoidance, customisable waypoints, and additional information during sailing. Users can also engage with the boating community, track a particular boat, and upload photos of their boat. The app has low data and battery consumption and supports all standard units of measurement.

2. Improve your experience at sea with OnCourse, the new boating and sailing navigation aid from MarineTraffic, the global leader in vessel tracking.
