The first boating app that prioritizes physics-based learning over simple quizzes. Conquer the ramp, the wind, and the storm — all from your phone.
Harbor's custom physics engine implements mass, drag, prop walk, and momentum — tuned specifically for small-to-mid-sized vessels.
Every frame calculates mass, drag coefficients, prop walk torque, and momentum decay. The boat feels like a boat — not a cursor on water.
Live wind gusts, current vectors, and weather progression — from calm blue to storm grey. The conditions evolve mid-scenario, forcing adaptive decisions.
Real-time vector overlays show exactly how wind and current are acting on your hull. Learn to read the water like an experienced captain.
Drag-and-drop loading simulation teaches center of gravity, weight distribution, and capsizing physics. Load the cooler wrong and feel the consequences.
From NOAA forecast reading to wind-on docking, each scenario teaches a specific skill through interactive, consequence-free simulation.
Decision-tree logic for NOAA forecast reading. Learn when to launch and when to wait — the most important skill in boating.
File a proper float plan, calculate fuel margins, and identify waypoints. The bureaucracy that saves lives.
Drag-and-drop loading simulation. Place passengers, gear, and fuel to learn center of gravity and prevent capsizing.
Master the "ferry angle" in cross-currents. Aim upstream so the current carries you perfectly to the dock.
The most stressful 60 seconds in boating. Learn the mechanics of backing a trailer into position under pressure.
From drain plug to engine start, execute the launch in the right order. Skip a step and the sim will show you why.
Learning spring-line techniques and prop-walk logic. Use mechanical levers to pivot off a wind-on dock.
That annoying sideways kick in reverse — made predictable. Learn to use prop walk as a tool, not a hazard.
Navigate a marked channel with traffic, current, and wind. Read the buoys, manage right-of-way, and stay in the lane.
Harbor is built with Flutter and Flame for ultra-smooth 60fps performance on mobile. Flame's game loop architecture provides frame-precise updates — drag coefficients, momentum decay, and wind gust modeling all tick at consistent intervals.
The visual style is clean, top-down 2D navigation with technical overlays: current arrows, wind vectors, and collision indicators that teach you to read the water like a chart.
Harbor helps you build muscle memory before the stakes are real. Follow along as we approach our first Beta window.
