For skippers
- Your Hub keeps recording on board, even when there is no signal.
- Your data is stored in data centres in the EU.
- Assembly, testing and service all happen in one place: Travemünde.
Made in EU
Designed in Germany. Made in the EU. Assembled in Travemünde.
Motorboat or sailing yacht: here is where your Hub comes from and who helps build it.
How a Hub is made
Development
We designed the Hub's electronics together with a development partner in Germany, and the design is ours.
Circuit boards
Our own circuit boards, the heart of the Hub, are manufactured in the Czech Republic and checked by automated optical inspection.
Housing
The housing is injection-moulded in Germany, and every part is inspected before it ships.
Labelling
The film for the status lights is screen-printed in Germany.
Sourced by choice
We source the connectors from Amphenol and the compute and radio modules from established manufacturers.
Assembly
In Travemünde we assemble every Hub, install the software and check the hardware.
Final test
Before shipping, every Hub passes our final test: power, Wi-Fi, app connection, online status, lights and buzzer.
Shipping
Your Hub is packed and shipped straight from Travemünde.
Hub OS, app and cloud
Software from Germany, operated in the EU
We develop Hub OS, the app and the cloud ourselves, entirely in Germany. Your Hub stores your boat data on board first, even without internet. In the cloud, it sits in data centres in Frankfurt am Main. New features and improvements arrive as over-the-air updates straight from us, with no workshop visit and no subscription required.
German Weather Service
How accurately does the Hub measure air pressure?
We had it checked: at the German Weather Service's calibration laboratory in Hamburg, two Hubs deviated from the reference pressure by no more than 0.14 hectopascals.
What this means for you
For businesses
- One point of contact for hardware, software and operation.
- Data kept in data centres in the EU.
- Circuit boards and housing from the EU, further development from a single source.
Why it is worth it
The Hub is not an off-the-shelf adapter. Its circuit boards are our own design, made in the EU, assembled and tested in Travemünde. On top of that comes software we write ourselves and keep improving through updates. That takes more effort than building with the cheapest supplier. In return, you know exactly where your Hub comes from, who tested it and who keeps developing it.
