This year, we are starting a direct collaboration with qtVlm, a partnership that will benefit our clients in many ways. However, our journey with this well-known routing app has been developing over a longer period.
To provide our clients with a closer hands-on experience of the app, we began collaborating with Hervé Reigner and his team at Synapse Navigation. They equip SailProof tablets and touchscreens with the powerful qtVlm navigation software, ensuring every device is ready to sail the moment it reaches your hands. This makes it easy for sailors seeking a complete, professional navigation experience to rely on a trusted partner in Synapse Navigation.
Installations and training are provided primarily in French, with the possibility of other languages depending on client needs.
