How it works

Pin. Ships. Bells.

Boat O'Clock is a clock that happens to know about ships. It answers one question fast: what's next, and when. The longer version →

1

Pin your spot

Drop a pin where you watch from — your window, the dock, the beach. Name it what you call it.

2

See what's next

Every ship headed past your pin gets a time. Name, type, size, flag. Ferries always.

3

Turn on Bells

A short toot before the pass, and another five minutes out. Quiet hours respected.

Widgets

The next ship, on your Home Screen and Lock Screen.

Glance, don't open. The Boat Clock's ship hand points at the next pass; the rim is the tide. Every widget →

Pricing

Free to watch. Pro to be told.

The map, the times and the widgets are free. Pro adds Bells — alerts before a ship passes your pin. Tide, wind and weather are never gated.
