Awesome company and awesome kit. I have a Sailproof SP08 and it never lets me down with an excellent battery run time. Keep up the good work Sailproof. 😊 Roger
Everything went well
Top responsiveness
Great service!
Good responsiveness
Delivered very quickly. I can't provide any information about the use on the boat at the moment.
I am very satisfied with the purchase and process. A real tablet for use on the boat. Highly recommended.
The tablet is robust and excellent quality. My only wish is that the viewable screen was larger
Very well Thank you
Beautiful tablet a bit heavy but not tested yet
After direct contact with the company has taken place, everything is now fine.
I would still like some information regarding the battery life. Contrary to the specification, the battery lasts about 15-20 hours during navigation (according to the manufacturer's specification, it should last about twice as long).
They were able to add to my order to save me shipping cost.
Company that systematically responds to complaint emails and cares about the customer!
Had to buy a second battery at almost $200.00 because bright screen pulls too on the much battery. You can't charge the battery without the tablet. Not the best for sailing in bright daylight. Recommend a couple of cheaper tablets for redundancy.
For the rest, battery life is as advertised (about 6 to 7 hours at 100% brightness), we extensively inform about this on our website because yes, a 1000 nits screen drains a lot of power and you have to take this into account.
I highly recommend. The seriousness and competence of this company is no longer to be demonstrated.
The very first startup is long, it's a bit stressful. But after that, the tablet is totally in line with what one could hope for: good screen visibility, super practical strap on the back, great confidence in protection against shocks and humidity (even if I haven't really dared to test it yet!). The only downside is the sound, but we didn't buy this tablet for that.
Very good
Excellent, materials and services are top-notch. I recommend, serious site
Product conforms.
I do take some responsibility myself, in that I didnt realise my order was being shipped from outside the UK meaning I had import charges over £200! My parcel was held in customs and they didnt release it until I provided proof of my purchase , I was threatened with daily storage charges and import tax. I contacted Sailproof for advise as I thought it was a scam at first. After 2 emails ( this is the only means of contact) I had no response. This left me very stressed and in the meantime charges were incurring on storage by UPS. I thought at this stage it was a problem that needed to be resolved by Sailproof as UPS advised me they had put the incorrect cost on the items enclosed in the package. The item cost me over £200 ! More than expected and Sailproof need not respond or care. I had no choice to pay the ever increasing charges than to otherwise loose £900 on the original order. I will never use them again.. I am appalled at their non communication.
we answered your message exactly 1 hour and 20 minutes after you sent it. And we sent 2 other messages in the following days, without any answer. As you know, it's always possible that messages arrive in your spam folder. For the rest, it's possible to create a support ticket in our help center (what was done when you sent your email anyway) and find our answers there. Moreover, we also contacted UPS to check if there was any issue with the import taxes calculation.
For the rest, yes, since Brexit, you have to pay the English VAT when the parcel enter the country (but we didn't invoice you any local VAT, unlike EU clients). And there is a warning about this in red letters at the top of the check-out page.
Hyper efficient (SailProof Belgium). Thank you 😉 Pierre

Shopping satis, seems to be robust and good. Not tried out on the boat yet
Excellent unit, does everything it says. Only negative is the imposition of import taxes due to the stupidity of most of England
Fast and compliant delivery
Great product. Works great in the sunshine, and the batteries last all day 👍
The tablet was delivered quickly and has a very robust impression. The display is very bright, but it reflects a lot. This is certainly a real disadvantage in direct sunlight. Therefore, one star deduction.
Robuuste tablet zeer kwalitatief afgewerkt,heb ook de houder er bij genomen ook deze is zoals voorgesteld.Het product voldoet aan de eisen zoals voorgeschreven.tevreden klant.
No problem
Product conforms to the description. The only downside is the delivery method. Since I was not home when the delivery person came, they threw the package over the neighbor's gate. Fortunately, no one stole it and the tablet seems to be fine (apparently). Delivery to a pickup point would be preferable...
I'm really sorry to hear that, this is indeed unacceptable. We will escalate the information to UPS.
Nice material, very good value for money.
Fast and efficient service
Prompt no-hassle delivery, and I’ve been impressed by the tablet so far.
Generally content but still uncertain that the charger I ordered alongside this is necessary. It would have been useful to be given more information as to what is included within the iPad pack.
I'm really sorry to hear about the charger. In our product description, the last line describes the "included accessories":
- US/EU/UK/Australian power adaptor
- USB-C cable
- USB-A to DC jack cable
- Hand strap
Perhaps the terms "power adaptor" are not sufficiently specific. Anyway, I have refunded the charger cost to your credit card 😉
I am very glad of my new tablet! It is really made for me. Thank you! Andrzej and Jacek (Poland)
Support has been excellent.
So far I am pleases with my new tablet. The shopping experience was pretty standard and the communication from SailProof acceptable. My one regret was in not researching the total cost more. For importing this tablet into the the United States, I found out too late that there is a $260 customs fee that must be paid because we have an idiot for a president. OUCH!
we are very sorry about Tariffs. We try to inform our client as accurately as possible, we have added a warning at check-out, with the last available information, but as changes are sometimes pretty unexpected, we can't confirm that this information is always 100% accurate. Taxes have been lowered with the last decision dated on April 5 (see here: https://content.govdelivery.com/bulletins/gd/USDHSCBP-3db9e55?wgt_ref=USDHSCBP_WIDGET_2). As you bought the tablet before this decision, but receive it afterwards, perhaps interesting to check if you can't claim for a refund?
Kind regards,
JM
My experience with the SailProof team has been great... both before I purchased the tablet and then after placing the order. I had a few questions as I was considering this product versus a traditional MFD, and they were answered promptly and professionally. This really made a difference in the overall experience and of course, my decision. There is no doubt that this is a serious company making serious products for sailors. I have yet to get out on the water, but the build quality is exceptional, and to be certain, this is not just a repackaged Android tablet but rather a purpose-built solution for the challenges of a harsh marine environment. I am looking forward to a great summer of sailing and using the SailProof tablet. Thanks.
All good
