iKommunicate

---

Access your boat information such as position and speed via voice while on board and at home via the Digital Yacht iKommunicate NMEA data Gateway. ( https://ikommunicate.com/ ).

To access your own boat's information with this skill you will need a Digital Yacht NMEA Gateway device connected to the NMEA instruments on board and a valid device id. You can try out the skill without having an iKommunicate device and will receive information from our test boat Sarita sailing in the English Channel.

Response: “Sarita, is travelling North East at 6 Knots in the English channel currently 5 miles south west of Plymouth”
