What you can do in Wakelog on the web
Depart, log, close the trip
Tap Depart to stamp the fix and start the engine-hour counter, drop as many log entries as you like while underway, then end the trip to close the counter and record the arrival fix.
A real logbook entry
Heading on a compass rose, heel to port or starboard, the full Beaufort 0–12 sea-state scale with its own sea description, wind direction and speed in knots, the fix in degrees and decimal minutes, and remarks.
Crew and sail combo
Add who came aboard as skipper, mate, crew or guest, and switch between all eight sail combos — main + jib, genoa, storm sails, spinnaker, motor, motor-sailing — per trip.
Engine hours and service log
A rolling counter across every trip, hours since the last service against your own interval, and milestones for oil changes, impellers, filters and yard work.
Offline tides for 21 US stations
The same bundled NOAA M2/S2/N2 harmonics as the iPhone app: a 24-hour tide curve, the next four high and low waters, and heights in metres or feet — computed in the tab, never fetched.
Logbook export
Write the whole season or a single trip out as a plain-text logbook with a master's signature line, or every entry as a CSV, ready for a charter handover or an insurance email.

Try it with sample data: Loads a five-week season aboard Salacia — a Half Moon Bay crossing, the delivery home, a day sail to Angel Island, a Wednesday beer-can race, a post-haulout shakedown and one trip still underway — with 37 log entries, crew lists and three engine-service milestones. You can start fresh at any time.

Questions
Is the web version of Wakelog free?+
Yes. Every screen is free to use: no subscription, no in-app purchases, no account.
Do I need an account?+
No. Open Wakelog and start using it right away. Sign in with Google only if you want to upvote an app, save it to your list, or leave a comment.
Where is my data stored?+
Only in this browser's local storage. Nothing you enter is sent to our servers, so we can't see it, back it up, or restore it. Clearing site data, a private window, or another device starts empty. Export a backup from the in-app menu to keep it.
Is there a Wakelog app for iPhone or Android?+
Not yet. Wakelog is a community proposal: the browser version is complete, and we build the iPhone and Android app once 100 people upvote it. Upvoters get one email when it ships.
