how it works
Harbours On Film are video pilotage guides for the leisure user.They are created to 'show and tell you' how to approach and enter a harbour. Once inside the harbour you are shown where you can find a berth, fuel, pub or yacht club. The films display compass headings, depths, chart overlays and directions. The narration follows the route displayed and guides you safely into the harbour, estuary or river
This website is an ‘online shop". You can buy a harbour film by purchasing a download, a DVD or the
iharbour player. 30 second trailers of each harbour can be viewed online.
