Summer is here, and with it the promise of great sailing. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, we’ve put together a list of practical tips. Here’s the summer TO DO LIST to get the most out of your Adrena navigation software.
1. Updates: Keep your software and charts up to date!
Before you cast off, make sure your Adrena software is up to date. Download and install the latest update for your version to benefit from improvements and bug fixes. It’s free, so don’t hesitate!
And don’t forget to update your nautical charts for safe navigation.
2. Planning: your routes to a tee
Use your Adrena or Octopus to plan your routes. Add waypoints for clear reference points at sea, roadbooks of all kinds, hazards, areas to avoid, nice anchorages…
Good planning also means taking into account weather forecasts and currents. This allows you to optimize your routes and stay in the sailing conditions you want for your crew’s safety.
Play with all routing options to find the best departure time, or be on time at the end. You don’t want to windward or leeward?
Get the Adrena reflex and ask the routers!
3. Alarms: Set your navigation and weather alerts
For safe navigation, set your software’s alarms. Activate alarms for danger zones, changes in wind strength or direction… And customize them with your favorite sounds.
4. Training: Become an Adrena pro
