‘Google Maps for Boats’ secures £692,000 in latest crowdfunding round

Marine technology company Savvy Navvy has just closed its crowdfunding round to the public, having raised more than £692,633 from over 450 investors.

The fundraising campaign, which was live on the investment platform Republic Europe in December 2025, oversubscribed by 197% due to the incredible response from investors worldwide.

“From the beginning, Savvy Navvy has been shaped by the boating community. Many of our users tell us they feel part of what we’re trying to change in marine navigation. It only felt right to offer them the chance to own a piece of it, too. I’m so pleased to have over 450 new investors on board from this round,” says Jelte Liebrand, CEO and Founder of Savvy Navvy. 

Savvy Navvy is now partnering with boat and engine manufacturers to integrate directly at the helm, allowing boaters to plan at home and navigate on the water without switching systems or re-entering routes on multiple systems. 

“We want to give boaters the seamless ‘couch to boat’ experience they expect. Planning from their phone at home and bringing it straight to state-of-the-art displays on the water. This funding round will enable us to continue to launch innovations never seen before in the marine world, bridging the gap between your phone and your boat,” Jelte says.

‘Savvy Integrated’ was launched less than twelve months ago to integrate the clutter-free Savvy Charts™ and smart features into built-in boat management systems, creating seamless navigation solutions for marine manufacturers and suppliers worldwide. Partners include Avikus, Arc Boats, CPAC Systems, RAD Propulsion and more.
