myLite Led Flashlight<\/h2>\n

Yes, your phone likely has a flashlight built into it, but not one like myLite.

Download the iOS<\/a> version.<\/p>\n

BoatUS<\/h2>\n

If one thing is certain about yacht charter vacations it\u2019s that something will always go wrong. When your entire vacation hinges on the weather and the mechanical soundness of a yacht it is recommended to have a backup plan. BoatUS can be that backup plan. When you\u2019re far from home, BoatUS can connect you with a tow in the case of mechanical failure or any other issue. The apps can pinpoint your exact location (so you don\u2019t have too) and can call for help. As a back-up plan, you can\u2019t beat BoatUS. Download the iOS<\/a> or Android<\/a> version.<\/p>\n

Navionics Boating<\/h2>\n

Navionics is one of the most popular boating GPS applications for your mobile phone. When on a boat, understanding where you are is the single most important factor. Navionics is a popular choice because of its auto-routing software (note this is an additional charge). Download the iOS<\/a> or Android<\/a> version.<\/p>\n

WhatsApp<\/h2>\n

WhatsApp Messenger allows you to text from phone to phone free of charge regardless of whether or not you are within your cell service boundaries. The app has been downloaded more than 1 billion times and is used in more than 180 countries. Download the iPhone, Windows or Android<\/a> version.<\/p>\n

FishWeather<\/h2>\n

Every boater needs a solid weather app and don\u2019t be fooled by the name of this one. Even if you aren\u2019t into fishing, FishWeather is helpful because of its focus on wind direction.
