Abstract: According to the present disclosure, a nautical drift managing device is provided. The nautical drift managing device includes an input circuitry to receive destination position information for a watercraft. Further, the nautical drift managing device includes a sensor circuitry to obtain external force information associated with the watercraft. Furthermore, the nautical drift managing device includes processing circuitry to determine, based on the destination position information and the external force information, a drift line associated with a drifting movement of the watercraft when an engine of the watercraft is stopped or neutral.
