savvy navvy, Quad Lock and Beyonder team-up

Three global marine companies are collaborating to enhance boaters’ experiences on the water.

Navigation app savvy navvy has teamed up with Australian based Quad Lock smartphone mounting system, and both are working with Beyonder Boating (part of boatfolk).

All new members of UK-based boating subscription company will be offered an elite savvy navvy subscription, setting up their smart phone device onto a mounting system supplied by Quad Lock (which recently launched into the marine sector).

“As we’ve grown hugely in global users of our all-in-one navigation app, so have our industry partnerships,” says David Cusworth, head of innovation and partnerships at savvy navvy.

“Any company that ultimately brings ease of use to a boater’s sailing experience adds value to us and to them. Experienced or not, all Beyonder members will now be able to plan their journey before they head out on the water with their savvy navvy subscription.”

Piers Covill, MD of Beyonder says: “All our boats come equipped with a full electronic navigation system but many of my customers prefer to use their phones combined with the familiarity of the savvy navvy app.

“So many of our members are new boaters, so it means one less thing to learn when using their boats. The routing feature is particularly popular with our customers enjoying the fact that savvy navvy will safely route them to their destination when in less familiar waters. Combined with the excellent Quad Lock system means their phones are secure and easily visible even when underway.”

In August 2022, savvy navvy partnered with boat rental platform Zizoo, while more recently savvy navvy founder Jelte Liebrand was recognised as ‘Scale-Up Entrepreneur of the Year’ at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2022.
