A new sailing app, a 50-nautical-mile passage through the Aegean, and finally some serious progress behind the scenes. In this episode of **Sailing into Freedom**, we introduce **Yachtara** — the new all-in-one marine app originally developed to support the Elcano World Challenge, but now growing into something designed for sailors everywhere.

Bart takes Yachtara sailing in **Greece**, planning a passage from **Thasos to Limnos** aboard a Bavaria 44. We look at weather forecasting, route planning based on the boat’s polars, passage timing, maintenance management, crew information, offline access, anchor monitoring, manuals and the future development of AI-powered vessel telemetry. Then we put the route into practice with a beautiful Aegean passage, good winds, 6–8 knot sailing and even a swarm of unexpected hitchhiking bees miles offshore.

If you’re interested in **sailing apps, weather routing, passage planning, marine technology, cruising Greece, boat maintenance and the future of smart sailing**, this episode gives you the first proper look at what Yachtara is becoming.
