Halifax, Nova Scotia, CANADA – iNav4U, creators of Zora The Operational System for Yachts, has announced a new collaboration with Aqua Map, a global leader in digital marine navigation.
iNav4U is delivering the first fully integrated, end-to-end platform that unifies yacht management, operations, and navigation in one seamless system. By embedding Aqua Map’s advanced marine charts directly into Zora, captains and yacht owners gain real-time
situational awareness and advanced vessel management tools - without juggling multiple apps and devices. The result is a single, intelligent interface that covers every aspect of yacht ownership, from voyage planning and safety to finances and maintenance.
“For too long, captains have had to switch between fragmented systems for navigation, management, and maintenance,” said Olivier Hendrikx, CEO of iNav4U. “By integrating Aqua
Maps charts into Zora, we are creating the unified platform the industry has been waiting for—one that makes yacht operations smarter, safer, and simpler.”
With this collaboration, Zora, powered by Aqua Map, becomes the first all-encompassing solution for yachting. Users can now manage navigation, voyage planning, documents, alarms, safety, maintenance, finances, and third-party app integrations—all in one place.
"Captains will welcome this seamless integration, bringing all on-board equipment together on a single screen,"
said Giorgio Ghiggini, Co-Founder of Aqua Map. "Zora will open a new chapter in marine navigation technology and, for the first time, bring Aqua Map charts to the PC. ”And there’s more to come.
Hendrikx and the iNav4U team will unveil a major announcement at the upcoming METS Trade Show in Amsterdam, the world’s largest marine equipment event.
