How to Use the Anchor Alarm

The anchor alarm watches your vessel's position and alerts you if it drags outside the safe radius you set.

  1. Anchor your vessel and note the anchor position on the map.
  2. Set the alarm radius around the anchor so normal swing stays inside it.
  3. Arm the alarm — the app continues monitoring in the background.
  4. If the vessel moves outside the radius, WakeKeeper raises an alert so you can react quickly.

Keep a position-reporting device aboard while the alarm is armed, so the latest position is always available.
