Not Impressed

Looking for help about the weather for our fishing trip, downloaded app, paid 2.99, but didn’t get the info we were looking for…

Buoy Data

Information I found most useful when I first got this app is the Buoy Data which no longer loads. About a month ago the screen just keeps trying to load but never does. Very disappointing.

Excellent boating and weather app.

Very easy to use. Has all the information one needs to plan a safe boating trip. I use it as my weather app as it gives detailed and accurate forecasts over several days.

Waste

Useless

Roy H Traverse City, MI

Excellent and multiple usefulness. A must have for us, especially when operating on Lake Michigan.

Quick Marine Weather

A quick look at the marine weather for a point on the map. Use this to navigate up and down the west coast of Michigan. Not sure the wave by prediction is always accurate, but maybe it’s my imagination let the waves are 1 foot larger than they expect. The one complaint I have is that a weather alert pops up every time I launch the app or change the point. But I have yet to figure out how to see what the NWS alert is for.

Great App

This is my “go-to” app for boating on Lake Michigan. Data is always accurate & up to date. The presentation of data is very intuitive, logical, & functional. Can’t go wrong here.

Helpful for boating Superior

Got this to check what the weather and waves are like on Lake Superior before I make the one hour boat pull down to her. Nice cause it has the buoys info if they are online telling you the real time wave height. Radar for weather built in as well to see if any storms role in, and even charts for depth and hazards. The info this provides for safe travels is well worth the $2.99.

Mostly wrong

Nothing like being on the water in 6’waves and your app says 1’ or less.

Wave data

There needs to be wave data from yr bouys. I would have given a higher rating otherwise
