Built by skippers, for skippers.

We’ve spent years at sea — charters, private yachts, instruction, flotillas — so we know the quiet pressure that comes with the role. It’s real, and it’s part of the job.

My First Mate was created to ease that load.

We combine real-world skipper experience with technology, AI, and deep domain knowledge to reduce uncertainty, improve preparation, and help you stay one step ahead.

Our knowledge comes from a wide network of experienced skippers worldwide — but nothing goes in without verification. Every detail is checked by us and validated by trusted local skippers in each region.

The result is a system that supports both skipper and crew: smarter planning, fewer surprises, timely insights, and meaningful crew involvement.

You’re not alone out there — and you shouldn’t feel like you are.

We’re here, sailing with you.
