NavTactiq™ — Your Edge on the Water

What is NavTactiq?

It’s not just an app — it’s a professional-grade sailing instrument, built by a competitive sailor, licensed captain, and coach who uses it every day on the water.

I poured decades of experience into NavTactiq to give you the same level of clarity, confidence, and tactical advantage that top sailors rely on. Whether you’re racing, cruising, or just learning the ropes, you deserve tools that are built to perform on the water.

Sail smarter. Start sharper. Stay on course.
On the water, every second counts. So does every degree. NavTactiq brings both into sharp focus by combining two essential tools into one seamless interface.

A race-optimized countdown timer

Nail the perfect start with a timer so intuitive you can sync it with a swipe—even mid-tack. Designed to be easier than sending a text. No instruction manuals needed, if you have an iphone you already know how to use NavTactiq.

A super-readable compass display
Big, bold, and built for real-world conditions. Whether you're in full sun, crashing waves, or low-light situations, your heading stays clear and easy to read at a glance.

Designed for real sailors
NavTactiq is built to be used on the water, not just designed to look good. It runs smooth, stays visible, and keeps working without draining your battery. Features include:

Always-on mode to keep your heading and timer visible

Night mode, color themes, and manual brightness control

Ultra-efficient performance for long days on the water

One purchase. Yours forever.

No subscriptions. No ads. No gimmicks. Just a clean one-time purchase with free lifetime updates.

I use NavTactiq every day, and I’m committed to improving it with every update. It started as a compass. Now it’s a powerful compass and race timer — and it's only getting better. As a one-design sailor, I ensure it meets class rules and delivers what racers actually need.
