philosophy

your boat. your data.

The marine electronics industry is built on closed ecosystems and high margins. We believe in open protocols and affordable hardware. Vane is your entry point to a smarter, more connected boat without the "marine tax".

The hardware is yours. The data is yours. That's how this should work.

stay in the loop.

batch updates, firmware releases, and new features. no spam.
