Smarter.Yachts transforms the way onboard systems are controlled by bringing the simplicity of smart home technology to the marine world. Instead of managing multiple remote controls, panels, and disconnected systems, everything is unified into one clean, intuitive interface.
The system is built around a modular architecture: start with Smarter.Yachts Node to control individual systems onboard, and expand with Smarter.Yachts Dash to orchestrate multiple devices, enable remote access, and manage the entire yacht from one central interface.
Whether you operate a charter yacht, manage a fleet, or own a private vessel, the system adapts to real-world onboard workflows — reducing complexity while improving safety, control, and operational efficiency.
Designed specifically for retrofits as well as new builds, Smarter.Yachts integrates seamlessly with existing equipment — eliminating the need to replace proven hardware.
From gangway and tenderlift to lighting, pumps, windlass, and dive compressor — every function is structured into dedicated operating modes, optimized for intuitive use by crew and guests alike.
The Gangway mode provides intuitive and reliable control of hydraulic and electric gangway systems. Designed for real-world onboard operation, it ensures smooth movement, precise positioning, and immediate response — even under demanding conditions.
The system integrates directly with existing controls and safety circuits, allowing seamless operation while maintaining full control over movement, direction, and system state.
Typical use cases include docking operations, guest boarding, and safe gangway positioning in confined marina environments.
The Digital Switching mode replaces or complements traditional switch panels with a flexible, software-driven control system. It enables direct control of electrical loads such as lighting, navigation instruments, fans, and auxiliary systems through a unified control interface.
Designed for both new installations and retrofits, the system minimizes wiring complexity while providing full control, clear system structure, and reliable operation under real onboard conditions.
Typical use cases include lighting control, spreader or underwater lights with automatic "switch off" after a defined period, navigation instruments (e.g. Plotter, Radar), Camera systems, Horns, TV's, or any other electric device on board.
The Pumps & Valves mode provides structured and reliable control of onboard fluid systems, including water pumps, bilge systems, and hydraulic or electric valves. It enables coordinated operation of multiple components through a unified control interface.
Designed for real onboard environments, the system supports automated control logic, feedback-based operation, and safe handling of critical systems such as tank management and fluid distribution.
Typical use cases include blackwater seavalve, Freshwater Tank selection on multi-tank vessels, Blackwater Pump on Lagoon 46/50 sailing catamarans, fresh water pressure pump, and watermaker tank selection.
The Tenderlift mode provides precise and reliable control of hydraulic and electric lifting platforms. Designed for real onboard conditions, it ensures smooth lifting, controlled lowering, and stable positioning of tenders, jet skis, and swim platforms.
Beyond movement control, the system enhances usability and safety by integrating additional functions directly into the interface — including the ability to activate onboard lighting during operation, improving visibility and simplifying boarding in low-light conditions.
Typical use cases include launching and retrieving tenders or jet skis, adjusting swim platform height, and enabling safe guest boarding — especially at night with integrated lighting control directly from the tenderlift interface.
The Windlass mode provides precise and reliable control of anchor winches, enabling safe anchoring and controlled chain handling. Designed for real onboard conditions, it ensures smooth operation during anchor deployment and retrieval.
The system integrates seamlessly with existing windlass controls and safety circuits, providing full control over direction, movement, and operational state while maintaining maximum safety during anchoring.
Typical use cases include anchor deployment and retrieval, controlled chain handling during anchoring, and safe operation from multiple control points onboard.
The Dive Compressor mode provides safe and structured control of onboard dive compressor systems. Designed for real-world operation, it enables reliable start/stop control while ensuring clear system feedback at all times.
The system integrates with existing electrical controls and provides real-time status indication, allowing crew to operate the compressor safely and efficiently — even in demanding conditions.
Typical use cases include onboard tank filling operations, dive preparation, and safe compressor handling during guest diving activities.
