Sailwatch Systems builds AI software for cruising sailors. Its apps work like extra crew: Sailwatch Ahead helps crews spot fishing gear and floating hazards ahead; Sailwatch Ashore finds tonight's anchorage and the next port, with the true cost for the boat and the local rules that apply; and Sailwatch Aboard keeps track of everything aboard and gets the right part to the next port when something breaks. Each app works on its own and together they share one picture of the boat. Sailwatch was founded in 2026 in New Hampshire, USA, designs and tests its products at sea aboard its Bali 5.2 test catamaran, which spent 90 days testing and collecting data in summer 2026, and runs its first pilot season with cruising boats in summer 2027.
