Cargo ships

The maritime autopilot for container ships

Stowage and lashing calculation stays in your class-approved loading computer. Naavra runs the ship around it: reefers, lashing gear, dangerous goods, fire readiness and the records you need when a box is lost or a cargo is claimed.

In the container ship pack

  • Reefer log, alarm response and pre-trip register
  • Container loss and adrift reports with a full audit trail
  • Lashing gear counted and inspected by photo
  • Dangerous-goods manifest and segregation by stowage position
  • Cargo hold fire readiness and heavy-weather log

14 features for container ships, plus everything every ship type gets. Your colleagues:

Questions

About Naavra for container ships

Does Naavra replace our loading computer?

No. Stowage and lashing calculation stays in your class-approved loading computer. Naavra keeps its final bay plans, stack weights and verified gross mass per voyage, read-only.

How are reefer temperatures captured?

From the crew's rounds by photo, or from a remote-monitoring export where you have one.

What happens when a container is lost?

An immediate report with position, number, type, dangerous-goods status, weather and drift, then a verified final message, with the audit trail kept.

We charter to a liner. Does that fit?

Yes. Hire statements, off-hire, bunker quantities and redelivery condition are kept with the liner charterer on a link.
