The official British Marine Federation App for users of the tidal and non-tidal River Thames.

The complete planner and guide for travel and leisure on the River Thames including where you can go, how you get there and what’s on the way - includes these key features:

Thames Map and Guide:
•Interactive River Map
•Journey Planner: time and distance between any two of 102 river points
•Locks: need to know detail on every lock
•Bridges: headway in metres and feet
•River draft (clearance under your keel)
•Weather for selected locations
•Current river conditions

Boating Advice:
•Rules for the River
•Preventing Problems
•Emergency Help and Guidance (RNLI approved)

INTERACTIVE RIVER MAP: pinch or squeeze to zoom to the required level of detail. Add any combination of locks, moorings, boatyards, marinas, slipways, fuel, sanitation, pubs, restaurants, lodgings and/or bridges; tapping any icon pops up further details including phone number (where appropriate).

JOURNEY PLANNER: select a starting point and destination from the supplied list of 102 landmarks (including locks, marinas, moorings and places of interest) and immediately see the sailing distance, direction (up or downstream), sailing time (at 5 mph, 3 mph and 1 mph) and the number of locks to transit to complete your journey.

LOCK FEATURES: every Thames lock is listed in order from Cricklade Bridge to Teddington with distance to next lock both up and downstream. Touch any lock to see much more information including: telephone number; post code; lock type; width, drop and length; lock keeper’s hours; facilities available (such as WC, water, pump out etc). From the lock detail just tap to put this lock in the middle of the interactive map.

BRIDGE HEADWAY: every bridge listed in order with headway in feet and metres; bridge headways are colour coded for ease of use and instant check to see if you need to lower any masts.

WEATHER: select one of 14 location on the river for an up-to-date weather forecast for today and tomorrow (includes temperature, winds, humidity, visibility, sunrise and sunset). Requires an Internet connection.

CURRENT RIVER CONDITIONS: for safer river use always verify the current official conditions before setting off; these are provided by the Environment Agency (the River Thames authority) and categorised as Red, Yellow or Green – tap to view an explanation of the colours.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY: River Thames Guide includes an SOS section with information, endorsed by the RNLI, on how to deal with various problems including: Man Overboard; Boat Sinking; Boat on Fire; Boat Drifting. NOTE: these sections should be studied before embarking so that you can react properly to any emergency. Better still: take an appropriate course before using the river.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

3 ★The app is great and could be 5 star but for one missing feature. I expect any map to use my GPS locator to show my location and to always centre the view on that point. Please can this be incorporated?
5 ★The issue with the map is fixed now, it all looks really good. Looking forward to taking it onto the water with me this summer.
1 ★Unable to open App just comes up with white scree.
1 ★Install triggered a warning by BT Virus Protect, so uninstalled.
5 ★A must have if you're a Thames user
5 ★It's brilliant!
2 ★A great idea and there is nothing to compare it to but it is so slow andclunky. Downloading map data is especially slow. The full version,available on the authors website is much better!
2 ★Information side of things ok. Interactive map next to useless - current position icon doesn't work, no option for showing water points, very poor facilities filter generally. Could be so good, but isn't.
5 ★Very accurate and a must for all boaters
2 ★Icon to show one's current location failed to activate on the map, so had to use Google Map when we did our trip. The advice and information in the app are excellent.
1 ★Installed twice but just won't open
1 ★Terrible app..map doesn't even show properly making it pretty useless.Tried installing 3 times...worse app I've ever downloaded.
