As first serial yacht manufacturer worldwide, German HanseYachts AG from Greifswald presents in partnership with Sentinel Marine Solutions, a telematic service and security system: The MyHanse Security Cloud.

With a cloud-based application HanseYachts AG is setting new standards in terms of service and safety aboard. With their smartphone or in the Owners Area of HansYacht`s website, owners will be able to access the ships data in live display. The MyHanse Security Cloud is a platform in which various apps about increased security at sea are being released. For the start of the platform three apps are available: BoatMonitoring, eLogBook and eServiceBook. Further apps are in the planning. 

BoatMonitoring: Various warning systems make the yacht safe and secure as never before. From a distance or on the ship, the owner is always informed. There are, for instance: position and movement report, intrusion detection, anchor alarm, weather alert, bilge level alarm, grounding alert, collision signal, as well as fuel and battery indicator. Push messages inform about potentially dangerous situations and give indications on low fuel and battery levels. Temporary guest accounts for the onboard system offer additional security when lending the yacht. 

The eLogBook tracks comfortably the route of the ship and archives as customary in the seafaring sector significant events like speed over ground, course and position. Naturally, the eLogBook also transmits the maximum velocity as a playful element. Logbooks are an important component of seafaring and are used for accident prevention and help to analyse the cause of accidents. They are also used for rescue operations and are partially prescribed by law. The eLogBook can also serve guests to create a simple documentation of the journey. 

eService Book: Important information is collected and processed in the cloud and automatically feeded into the digital service booklet. The platform calculates how many miles the ship went under sail and under engine. It also knows the maintenance intervals for all components of the ship and reports automatically when something becomes due. Push messages on the smartphone will remind of periodic maintenance dates. Sea cocks, anodes, engine oil or saildrive cuffs will not be forgotten any longer. The service booklet will always be up-to-date, giving a higher resale value for timely maintained ships. As additional service, manuals of the yacht and all installed components will also be available in the app and in the owners area of HanseYachts´ website. In case of maintenance the adequate instructions can be opened right away.
