If a lot of yachts will use a BoatPilot, then a lot of information will come in at the same time. Will BoatPilot deal with this influx of different information??

I want to advertise with you. What`s the fee?

Hello!


We create a new advertising market and plan to generate revenue from it. That is, we get money at TGE and spend it for finalization our BoatPilot, BoatGod and Pocket Skipper. With them in the advertising market we will receive the income. When we reach the Hard Cap or the amount close to it, we cover more territories and get more income. This is the main idea for the growth of tokens.


To become a participant of BoatPilot TGE it is necessary to buy NAVI tokens. The tokens' ticker on cryptocurrency exchanges is NAVI (ERC20 standard), the cost – $0.07 at the time of the TGE. The following cryptocurrencies are accepted: ETH (Ethereum), BTC (Bitcoin), BCH (Bitcoin Cash), and LTC (Litecoin). Please, contact us via e-mail [email protected] to buy the tokens using alternative ways of payment during Private Placement of TGE.


We are developing a hardware module called BoatGod, which allows a navigation program installed on a tablet computer to connect to onboard networks, thereby providing the ability to analyze information and receive/send data to the onboard network. Additionally, BoatGod users will be able to control onboard devices such as the vessel's autopilot, engine, onboard lighting, and media system. With BoatGod, skippers will be able to monitor the status of all the vessel's systems and manage them. We also plan to give BoatGod capabilities to remotely control NMEA-compatible devices.
The end users of these solutions are not only private owners, but also large charter companies interested in remotely monitoring all onboard systems, from electronic devices to engines, of vessels currently in use by their clients.
BoatGod will allow users to fully control the vessel, collect and analyze geo-information to refine navigational data, and quickly obtain navigational information synchronized with personal mobile devices.

Kind regards,
BoatPilot team

I do not believe that your product is free. You say this only in the beginning. How will you make money then?

Thanks for asking!


The team is a perfect combination of the professionals in the sphere of IT and desperately lovers of yachting. They have every chance to bring it to life reaching the Hard Cap.


Hi! At the beginning we work with vector maps. But our maps differ from open street maps. We take maps from the server and processed them with our graphics.


Here you can find the Russian Yellow Paper: https://www.boatpilot.io/docs/BoatPilot_Yellow_Paper_RU.pdf

Kind regards,
BoatPilot team

Has the team had an experience in TGE projects? Were they successful?

Do you work with raster maps or vector maps (Navionics)?

Do you have Yellow Paper in Russian? Didn't manage to find it.

Do you accept credit cards?

Charter business is interested in the possibility of remote control of the vessel, your BoatGod gives such an opportunity? earlier you've written that he is close to smartthings

I like the idea of the project. Interesting project!  When can we expect the release of the beta version?

Can I transfer tokens after TGE or till the coin is launched in to coin market?

Hello! Thank you for the questions!


We can not predict this. We take the following responsibilities to ensure that NAVI cost continues to rise: 1.Burn all tokens used to book yachts, marinas and others through Pocket Skipper app; 2.Use at least 25% of the profits raised through advertising to purchase NAVI tokens and burn at least 50% thereof for the period of 3 years after the TGE.


Thanks a lot for words of support! We're glad to hear it.


Yes, BoatPilot works on vessels equipped with a GLONASS and/or GPS geolocation device.

Kind regards,
BoatPilot team

Is your navigator single-system (GPS) or two-system (GPS + GLONASS)?

Very promising and perspective project. I'm pretty sure to invest some money in March.

What are your forecasts - how will your token be traded on the stock exchange in half a year after the end of TGE? In a year? What are your optimistic and pessimistic forecasts?

Hello! Thanks for asking!


BoatPilot is based on unique software components such as very accurate maps with pleasant size, easily updated by the users, wireless hardware module BoatGod for iOS and Android platforms, Pocket Skipper service app perfectly designed for advertising needs, and is absolutely free for all users.
And yes, BoatPilot works without the Internet, as every Tablet is equipped with GLONASS or GPS system that are enough for charting the route.
For comparising information of the products, see https://www.boatpilot.io/docs/BoatPilot_White_Paper_EN.pdf


We have 1-meter resolution for depths up to 5 meters, and raising the resolution as depth increases. This does not affect navigational capabilities, but significantly enhances performance and reduces the amount of data stored and processed.
The most data suppliers  (for example, OSM) have a coastline contour encoded as 1,000 curves with a resolution of 1 meter, but it is much more efficient to present it as 10 curves with a resolution of 100 meters without significant loss of accuracy. Depth charts can be presented with a vertical resolution of 0.1 meters, which is also clearly excessive for the private yachting sector.
Our algorithm will find and eliminate such redundancy, which in turn will cut the size of the database to a fifth.


During the private placement we do not disclose information about the collected funds. We will definitely disclose this information closer to the start of the crowdsale (March 1) — to define the maximum ammount of the tokens for the crowdsale and, of course, to inform all participants.
In addition, we'll immediately notify, if the Soft Cap will be reached during the private placement. We'll write about this on the site and publish a press-release.

Kind regards,
BoatPilot team

Where i can looking process sale token ?

What resolution do you use for the depths?

In fact, there are quite a few projects on the navigator, why choose the project itself, what is unique to it? Is it possible to work without the Internet?
