Marine mobile app Nebo continues to impress skippers the world over with a new feature in its latest update making it even easier to enjoy a safe and carefree boating experience.

Nebo's new "Pre-Start Checklist" feature enables users to create a customise start-up list for their particular boat. Users can select and save their own Pre-Start instructions or choose from a range of suggestions, including Shore Power Off, Check Fuel Levels, Check-in with Coast Guard and much more. Skippers can also add their own reminders to the list and establish unique checklists for more than one vessel.

The feature helps boaters always remember the critical items that must be addressed before departing the marina or anchorage, and the Start-up Checklist can be automatically saved in Nebo's log.

Since its launch last year, Nebo has swiftly grown to become a popular app in the marine industry with more than 14,000 skippers across 190 countries now using it to automatically log their voyages.

Primarily designed as a tool to automate the task of logging sea voyages using advanced geofencing technology, Nebo sets itself apart from other apps by emailing detailed log reports to skippers each day that are invaluable for record keeping, insurance claims, communication and more.

Nebo also has a host of other useful features, including a new Track Me function that allows friends and family or commercial companies to keep tabs on a user's location at sea.

Nebo also allows users' voyage reports and images to be instantly shared with individuals, groups or the public on most social media platforms.

A new Nebo app update has just been released. To download for free or to find out further information visit the website at www.nebo.global.
