Vortex Marine, innovator of marine navigation technologies, announced today the launch of Scout, a portable marine navigator built to help boaters see more of the water they are traversing. The 10.1-inch device brings satellite imagery, electronic navigational charts, weather and live vessel information onto one screen that can move from the helm to belowdecks or into a tender.

Despite a few mentions of Argo Nav’s capabilities, I have yet to write a full, hands-on review of Argo Nav’s mobile device navigation app. For the first several years Argo was around, founder Jeff Foulk didn’t feel the product was “ready” for a review. Now, as Argo has matured and Jeff is more confident in what it has to offer, my pokiness in getting a review out means I still haven’t completed a full Panbo review. Allow me to rectify that while also highlighting a new feature that is near and dear to my heart. In large part because of my time cruising the Intracoastal Waterway and its many shoaling hazards, I’m most excited about Argo’s addition of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers survey data overlays right on the chart.
Earlier this summer, Starlink changed rate plans and made tweaks to the rules around using their various roaming plans. For boaters who travel across international borders, the most substantive of the rule changes was the move from a limit of 60 days in another country or region down to 30 days. That change generated a lot of frustration for global cruisers who have been using Starlink’s services and came to depend on them. But, it looks like there is relief coming with a new rate plan for private boats.

It’s been more than a year since I last wrote about Starlink. You might assume that silence means nothing has changed. You’d be wrong. Maybe I’ve just run out of clichés for how the pace of change never slows with Starlink — but regardless, the changes keep coming, and they’re often frustrating for the nomadic subscribers who’ve come to rely on it for connectivity. Changes include new equipment, price hikes, international roaming tweaks, and new ID requirements.
For the last 8 years, SIONYX has provided an alternative to thermal night vision cameras. They advertise the sensitivity of their Black Silicon CMOS sensor down to 0.001 LUX or total darkness. In my testing, their cameras have provided truly impressive performance while also displaying full color images in near total darkness. Impressive as their cameras have been, each review has been limited by the connectivity their cameras offered. Now, SIONYX’s Nightwave Digital offers a full suite of connectivity options. So, does the new camera provide everything I want? Read on and find out.

Vanemar’s monitoring system joins a rather crowded field of monitoring products with their own spin on how best to monitor your boat. With a strong reliance on wireless sensors, extensive NMEA 2000 integration, and an emphasis on user experience throughout the product, Vanemar makes their case for consideration when selecting a monitor. But, currently the lack of bilge pump monitoring holds me back from a full throated recommendation.
