SkipperGuide uses mediawiki as well as semantic maps and other plugins to support the special requirements of a district guide. Furthermore, SkipperGuide and OpenSeaMap are closely interlinked - maps and coordinates are displayed via OpenStreetMap and OpenSeaMap, the marinas from SkipperGuide are referenced from OpenSeaMap. SkipperGuide thus represents the official port manual from OpenSeaMap.
