Course overview
Watchful App
Welcome to the Watchful App. This software has been designed and built by Quintham as a tool to help vessels communicate data from the vessel to the shore and complete their designated role in guard, safety, scout, or chase boat duties. The team at Quintham is passionate about creating user-friendly software that makes the tasks required by service vessels easier and more efficient. Our holistic approach to support includes expert captains with many years of service on these vessels and projects, as well as developers using the latest technologies to improve the value of the service vessel.
