Funnel Ensign is an offline-first ship spotting log for harbour watchers. Standing on a quay, pier or sea wall? Record each passing freighter, tanker and ferry in seconds, and build a personal fleet record over time. PASSING BOARD Open the app to a fullscreen timeline of today's sightings, newest at the top. Each card shows a drawn funnel badge in the ship's stack colours, plus vessel name, IMO number, gross tonnage, direction of travel (inbound or outbound) and time seen. Group by watch session and filter by ship type or direction. LOG A SIGHTING FAST Tap Log Sighting, type the 7-digit IMO number (checked with the standard IMO check-digit algorithm), choose the ship type, enter gross tonnage, direction, time and notes. Ships you have seen before autofill from your Fleet Index, so repeat visitors take just two taps. FUNNEL PAINTER Paint the funnel with a tap-to-select editor: a cap colour, up to three horizontal bands and an optional emblem shape, shown live as you edit. FLEET INDEX Every unique vessel you have seen, with sighting count, first and last seen, flag and build year. FUNNEL MATCH AND SHIPPING LINES Pick funnel colours from a palette and get ranked candidates from your own fleet and the built-in directory of about 30 well-known shipping lines with their typical stack colours. Add your own custom lines too. SIZE LADDER Compare gross tonnage across a session, from the smallest ferry to the largest container ship, with size class labels. WATCH SESSIONS Start and end a watch with your spot name, weather and tide notes. Review a summary with counts by type and total tonnage. STATS Charts of ships by type, by line, busiest hours, biggest ship seen and your personal records. EXPORT AND REMINDERS Share your log as CSV or plain text, and set a daily watch reminder. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything is typed in and stored on your device. Funnel Ensign does not use your location, camera or microphone, and works with no connection. Whether you are a casual harbour watcher or a dedicated ship enthusiast, Funnel Ensign helps you remember every ship that passes.
