Fleet weather for commercial harvesters

Your boat, your weather.

Every boat becomes a weather station, and the whole fleet sees what the forecast missed.

Mauzy Marine gives each boat a 2.5 km forecast for its own grounds, puts the official warnings in front of the crew, and checks the forecast against what is really happening on the water.

Running now on a demo fleet with the live Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) forecast.

Three layers, one fleet

It starts useful on one boat. It gets better with every boat that joins.

Works with one boat

Forecast

Wind, gusts, seas, freezing spray and sea ice along your own grounds, hour by hour, from the 2.5 km ECCC model. Official ECCC warnings and the marine forecast text sit right beside it.

Coming next

Measure

The skipper’s phone will supply position and motion, plus one tap condition reports. A marine sensor kit follows, to log true wind, pressure and sea state every minute. On the demo fleet, boat reports are simulated.

Grows with every boat

The Mesh

Every boat is a node on a live map, linked to its neighbours. You see what the boats ahead are reporting, and how the forecast is holding, area by area.

The real app, not a mock-up

Every screen below is the working app, captured today on the demo fleet with the live forecast. Pick a view.

The Mesh: the demo fleet on a map of the southern Labrador coast, with a boat panel, official warnings, the AI crew briefing and forecast against reality.

The fleet on one map

Each boat is a node coloured by the conditions on its grounds. Tap one for wind, seas, freezing spray, the official marine forecast and the days ahead.

Demo fleet. Boat names, positions and boat reports are invented.

The forecast, checked against reality

Off Labrador there are very few buoys and stations, so nobody knows where the forecast is wrong. Mauzy Marine compares what the model said with what was measured at the ECCC coastal stations, and with what the boats report, area by area.

  • Measured wind at the ECCC coastal stations, set against the model, live.
  • Alerts when a boat ahead reports conditions worse than forecast (simulated on the demo fleet).
  • Freezing spray worked out from the forecast, on every boat’s grounds.
  • An AI crew briefing in plain language. The numbers come from the forecast, never from the model.

On deck, in your pocket

The same fleet on a phone, laid out for one hand: the map, the forecast, the fleet and Ask, which answers in plain words and draws a chart or a table when you ask.

  • Map, Forecast, Fleet and Ask along the bottom
  • Night look by default
  • Your units: knots or km/h, metres or feet

For co-ops and shore plants

One purchase puts a whole fleet on the map, inside a group that already trusts each other.

Shore view

Which boats are out, which are in port and when each is expected to land, so the plant can plan with more than a guess.

A private fleet network

Conditions flow between the boats in your group. Nobody outside it sees your positions.

A season record (planned)

A running log of forecast against reality that shows where the models struggle on your coast.

How it works

Software first. The phone is the sensor. Hardware comes when you want more.

  1. 1

    Available now on a demo fleet

    Software

    The forecast for your grounds, official warnings, the Mesh, forecast against reality, alerts, the AI crew briefing and the shore dashboard.

  2. 2

    Planned

    The phone is the sensor

    The skipper app will send position, motion and one tap condition reports from the phone already on board. Not built yet.

  3. 3

    Planned

    Sensor kit and Starlink Mini

    A marine weather station measuring true wind, pressure, air temperature and sea state every minute, plus a Starlink Mini for boats without a data link. Not built yet.

Built so more harvesters come home

Mauzy Marine is decision support that sits next to the official ECCC marine forecast and the VHF weather broadcast. It does not replace them. The skipper makes every call.

The harvester owns the data

Your data is yours

What your boat records belongs to you. Anything beyond your own fleet is shared only with your consent.

Position sharing is opt in

Share your exact position inside your fleet, share more widely as a safety mode, or stay private.
