About

FREE OF CHARGE • 7 of the 28 manoeuvre videos: the straightforward case in every category • VHF radio reference: Mayday, Pan-Pan, Sécurité, radio check – based on SRC and UBI topics • NATO alphabet and a German/English/French glossary • Right-of-way and collision-avoidance rules, sea marks, distress signals • On-board checklists • Converter: knots, km/h and m/s with the matching Beaufort force, plus nautical miles, feet, temperature and weight • The complete blog with tips and tricks Safety knowledge is not behind the paywall in Port King. WITH PORT KING PRO • The remaining 21 manoeuvre videos: the same manoeuvres in stronger wind • Flashcard training: NATO alphabet, radio messages and vocabulary • The radio message generator: ready-made messages for your own boat • The in-depth articles on the Beaufort scale and sea state HOW THE VIDEOS ARE ORGANISED Seven categories: alongside, mooring lines and piles – each one casting off and berthing – plus anchoring. In the six manoeuvre categories, four videos each show the same situation in different wind conditions; for anchoring, four steps from the basics to berthing with a bow anchor. The first video of every category is free. Port King Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. ALSO INCLUDED • German and English • Dark mode • Wall of Fame: when we implement a suggestion, we are happy to name the person who sent it – only if they want us to • Notifications only if you want them DID YOU BUY PORT KING EARLIER? Port King was a paid app until August 2026. On the device where it was bought back then, Port King Pro is usually already unlocked. After changing devices or reinstalling, the app can no longer detect this. The Pro screen has its own route to the feedback form for exactly this case – please have the order number from your Google Play receipt ready (it starts with GPA). Watch the manoeuvre beforehand – as often as you like, even on the pontoon just before you cast off.Read more
