KNRM Helpt

KNRM Helpt is the official app of the Royal Netherlands Sea Rescue Institution designed to enhance maritime safety and trip planning. It allows users to register their vessels and file detailed Sail Plans including estimated arrival times, passenger details, and route waypoints using electronic navigational charts.

The app offers two main modes: Sail Plan mode for filing trips with automatic emergency alerts if the estimated time of arrival is exceeded, and Track only mode for quick activation of location tracking. Users can share their real-time location with friends and family via a live map, providing peace of mind during sea journeys.

Additional features include access to vital maritime information such as nearby VHF channels, ports, rescue stations, weather and water conditions, and the ability to customize safety checklists. Emergency assistance can be summoned instantly through the app’s Call for Help button. KNRM Helpt supports seamless trip management for vessel owners to enhance safety and preparedness on the water.
