When navigating unchartered waters or entering shallow harbours, it is important to be able to see dangers ahead of your vessel before it is too late. The greatest principle of any voyage is planning your passage and looking ahead is imperative to ensuring your safety when out on the water. However, while a good survey and a precise position has been the key to keeping boats safe and sound for centuries, there are times when this isn’t an option. Some places are still poorly charted and there are moving shoals which defy the efforts of hydrographers and harbour buoyage.

Danish marine safety equipment manufacturer, Daniamant, has launched a tugboat version of its renowned Electronic Inclinometer, an advanced heel and pitch measuring device. The DanEI-300T fulfils the most recent Bureau Veritas Group’s regulations for escort tugboats and is approved by German BSH to the IMO (International Maritime Organisation) performance standard MSC.363(92):2013.
