Anchor with confidence — and actually sleep.
HoldFast keeps a constant GPS watch on your boat and sounds a loud alarm the instant it starts to drag — even with the screen off. The core anchor alarm is free, built by sailors for sailors.
SET IT. FORGET IT. SLEEP.
• Drop anchor — tap your position, or offset to the exact bow location
• Set your swing — adjust the watch radius from 5m to 200m
• Rest easy — HoldFast keeps watch in the background while you sleep
TRUSTED ANCHOR MONITORING — FREE
ROCK-SOLID BACKGROUND TRACKING — An optimized GPS engine stays awake with the screen off. If your boat moves, you'll know.
NO FALSE ALARMS — You set the GPS-signal-loss threshold, from 30 seconds to several minutes. No more 3 AM "ghost" alerts.
PROGRESSIVE ALARMS — A gentle nudge as you near the boundary, then a loud emergency alarm if you've truly broken free. You're warned early, not too late.
NIGHT-VISION DARK MODE — Keeps your cockpit dark and your night vision intact.
HOLDFAST PREMIUM
Unlock the extras when you're ready — choose an annual plan, or pay once for lifetime access.
CUSTOM ALARM ZONES — Draw a shape around rocks, shallows, or moorings instead of a plain circle.
REMOTE WATCH — Share a private live link so family or crew ashore can track your position in real time from any web browser.
GPS TRACK HISTORY — Replay exactly how your boat swung through the night on a colour-coded track.
CUSTOM ALARM TONES — Choose a piercing tone that's guaranteed to wake you.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
