In short

Salty: Sailing & Boat Logbook is a logbook for recording sailing voyages as routes on a map, with each day's leg measured in nautical miles from waypoints. It suits charter skippers, crew, and owners who want a private record of where they sailed, who was aboard, and how far they went. One notable feature is its stats section, which separates miles under sail from motored miles and tracks wind conditions across the logbook.
