The CAptain’s Mate member app provides an unrivalled breadth of information and cruising reports covering 7,500+ locations in 100+ countries worldwide. Available as an app and on the web, CAptain’s Mate provides up-to-date, accurate and informative location data on anchorages, marinas, ports, harbours, boatyards, quays and local interest. Drawing on a database of 20,000+ member contributions, it offers first-hand insights, practical knowledge and photos.

The CA provides extensive cruising guidance and advice to help members plan and navigate international passages with confidence. But the support doesn't stop there - wherever you are in the world, you are rarely far from a CA Honorary Local Representative (HLR). HLRs are experienced local contacts who are ready to help members in whatever way they can, whether that is sourcing emergency repairs, finding moorings, navigating local bureaucracy, securing visas, arranging provisions, translations, land transport or excursions. And if they can't help directly, they will know someone who can. Members can access HLR contact details through the CA website and CAptain's Mate.
