The first MS-windows version was launched in 1994. PLANMASTER is a tool in use by many Terminals and Shipping Lines all over the world. Also the sister-product TASKMASTER, Lloyd’s approved, has been installed on more than 400 Container vessels, who rely on this professional product for their stability calculations.
