WCC will help you plan your transcontinental journeys and your world trips.
WCC synthesizes information available from different sources such as nautical guide books, pilot charts, specialized websites etc, and moreover make it visual.
Why? Because answering a question as simple as "When should the sailboats leave South Africa to cross the Atlantic Ocean?" requires you to open big books and consult different kinds of maps, whereas it takes you no more then a few second to find the solution with WCC:
from january to april!

For each month, a global map shows the following information:
- the main navigation zones
- the sail boats’ positions and their main routes
- the cyclonic zones and the frequent cyclone tracks
- the isolines of wind force and their main direction
- the drifting icebergs limit

With WCC you know when to hoist the sails in order to get the best navigation conditions and avoid the cyclonic zones as well as head winds.

Thanks to the “Skip in Touch” feature, you can also share your position and search for your friends’ boats by name, and set up a social network for sailors.
Notice: the "Skip in Touch" feature requires that you can connect to internet.
